Looks like you have to go to a physical branch to open CD.

You can open a CD for 1yr at Chase using Fidelity https://fixedincome.fidelity.com/...-issue|1yr at 5.45% APY

Note that it is difficult to get your money out of such brokered CDs early as you will have to sell it on the secondary market which almost always causes principal loss.

The Chase is a callable CD. Can't see exact one but probably callable at 6 months. The noncallable CDs pay less but to me, that's the way to go. 5.35% noncallable available from many different banks at brokerage houses. T-bills also close to 5.3% for a year which for me is better because I live in a high tax state, but to each their own. Definitely hard to get your money out early from a brokered CD so wouldn't do it unless you know you can hold it till maturity.

Also, no automatic renewal with brokered CDs and no APY numbers. The interest rate you see is the interest you get. Most banks give you a rate that assumes you are reinvesting you interest in the CD which make the "real " rate about .1% or so less. For example, CFG 12 Month CD Online one year cd is 5.38% interest rate and 5.52% APY

If you can find a brokered CD that pays you interest monthly even better but usually you have to go out more than a year to find that.

Still a good time for interest rates compared to the last 15 years!

Are you suggesting as an alternative, we start individually providing 24% car notes?

Uhhh...That reduces the APY and you are losing compound interest.

Do not even remember when was the last time I physically visited the branch. I'm not going to do this when I can open a brokered CD in 10 seconds with a couple of mouse clicks.

Santander is an absolute garbage bank, borderline fraudsters with your money. Personal experience

If you're looking for monthly pay CDs and you're a Fidelity customer check out what they offer from their select banks. Picked up non callable 3,6, and 9 month CDs, two weeks ago, all paying out monthly. 5.35% ea
