How we make money

Using CD Rate Scout costs you nothing. CD Rate Scout Ltd. may be compensated by participating banks, brokerages and their marketing partners when a consumer submits a scouting request or opens an account after an introduction from this site.

Compensation may affect which providers appear on this website, the order in which options are presented and how prominently they are featured. The scouting table is not a complete survey of the market, and options from providers who do not work with us will not appear here.

Providers do not write or approve our educational content, and compensation does not alter the verified details shown on a listing — term, maturity date, APY, minimum deposit and payment schedule come from the provider’s own information. See our rate methodology and editorial policy.

Any compensation we receive comes from providers, not from you, and it does not change the rate or terms a provider offers you.
