Overviews of Chase Bank CDs

Chase CDs offer relationship rates, meaning you must have a Chase checking account to qualify, and the minimum deposit is $1,000. Standard rates (i.e. what you earn without a linked Chase account) offer just 0.01% APY on all CDs no matter the term, which obviously isn’t worth your time.

Rates can increase with larger deposits. For example, a two-month CD earns a relationship rate of 4.25% to 4.75% APY, depending on the balance. When you deposit an amount greater than $100,000, you’ll earn the higher range.

Any deposit larger than $1 million must be approved at a scheduled meeting with a Chase banker.

Withdrawing before the CD matures incurs a penalty in which your account forgoes some previously earned interest. Additionally, note that Chase automatically renews CDs unless you opt-out. You have a 10-day window once the CD renews to withdraw your funds if you choose. Otherwise, you’ll lock in your funds for the same period of time at the current interest rate.

How much can you earn with Chase Bank CDs

Is Chase a good option for a CD account?

Chase currently offers two terms (2 months and 9 months) with competitive rates. However, you’ll find better rates from the best 3-month and best 9-month options on the market.

Should you need to make an early withdrawal, the penalty will be no more than the total amount of interest earned. Some other CD providers have policies wherein the early withdrawal fee can eat into your principal.

Therefore, if you’re already a Chase customer and desiring CDs with those specific terms, it might be a suitable option. 

However, you’ll likely find higher-yielding CDs elsewhere.

If you’re after heartier yields, check out the best CD rates.

How to open a Chase CD account

1. Log in or sign up

If you’re already a Chase customer with a banking account, loan, credit card or other financial product from the company, you can log in and have the Chase CD application prefilled. 

However you slice it, current customer or not, you need to have a Chase checking or savings account before investing in a Chase CD. 

Once you do, you can open a Chase CD account online or in person. If you’re a fan of in-person banking, you can schedule a meeting with a banker; the button to do so is right on the Chase CD page. 

You’ll only need to go in person if you’d like to open a joint account. 

2. Pick and fund your CD

Pick the term you want from all the available options and how often you’d like to receive the interest payments.

You can choose whether you’d like the CD interest to be paid to you monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, annually or at maturity, depending on the term. 

To fund the CD, you need a minimum of $1,000, which you can transfer from your Chase checking account.

Documents you’ll need

If you already have a Chase Bank login, all you’ll likely need is your username and password. 

Without being a current Chase customer, you may need to look up some information. In most cases, you won’t need to submit any documents online, simply information. 

The bank requires that you share your name, residence address and a government identification number, which could be your Social Security number (SSN) or Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN).

If you go in person, you may be asked to show a document as proof of identity, such as a driver’s license. 

Should you get a CD from Chase Bank?

The Chase CDs with competitive yields, such as the 2-months and 9-month options, could be worth it if you’re already a Chase customer and don’t want to open a CD at another financial institution. 

There are better CD rates available at other financial institutions, however. Online banks tend to offer top-of-market rates. If you’re willing to open another account, your deposits could earn more interest elsewhere. 

Alternatives to CDs

There are excellent alternatives to CDs that may better fit into your financial plan than or in addition to CDs.

• Get a high-yield savings account. Savings accounts have yields competitive to CDs, but feature much greater liquidity. While Chase Premier Savings℠ offer a offer a maximum yield of 0.01% to 0.02% APY, depending on the relationship, the best high-yield savings offer rates around 5% APY.
• Pay down debt. It can pay off to pay down high-interest debt. Rather than invest your cash, reduce your loan balances — you could potentially save more money than you could make. 

If you’re waffling on which to do, try a balanced approach. Use half the money you wanted to invest in CDs to pay down debt and follow through earning yields on the other half.
