A certificate of deposit (CD) is an account that offers you a higher interest rate than a traditional savings account. In exchange, the money is left untouched for an agreed upon time. That period is known as the term length. You'll incur a penalty if you withdraw your funds before the term is done.

U.S. Bank offers a range of terms so you can choose how long your money can build interest and when you can withdraw it. The total amount of interest you earn on a CD is determined by the term length and your initial deposit. Different CD products offer you different term length options and require different initial deposits.
