CD Options

Choose a Maturity Date or Term — BECU CDs offer the flexibility to choose a CD by a specific maturity date or by choosing the specific term length.

• Maturity date: Choose the date your CD will mature without being restricted by specific CD term lengths. The benefit is your investment will be available on the date you want it.
• Term: Choose from 3 months to 60 months term lengths. The CD will mature at the end of the term you selected.

Bump — Do you like to keep tabs on financial markets and follow interest rate forecasts? Then choose a 12 or 24 month "Bump" CD. These CDs have a one-time option to increase the interest rate on your investment to BECU’s published rate for the equivalent term CD.

Add-To Option — With the Add-To option, you can make additional contributions while maintaining your fixed interest rate. Choosing Add-To also allows you to open a CD with as little as $100.
