My application spent 3 weeks "in review" before I told them to close my application. Good luck to those taking a chance.

Agreed, Robinhood isn't great IMO. Schwab's money market fund pays 5.25% currently, been stable at or above 5% for a long time now. No monthly fee, no minimum balance. EXCELLENT customer support. Easy to transfer $ to/from your reguar bank. Fairly easy to sign up (though Robinhood is admittedly slightly easier). You put money in by buying $1 shares of SWVXX thru a trading account. Interest is paid monthly, but you get a prorated amount if you invest for part of a month. Great place to park some cash without commitment, and interest rates aren't going to move much until end of this year at the earliest. Fidelity is another good option. $USFR (recommended by rkster09 in a previous comment) is another great option. Regardless of which trading platform, you'll have lots of good options, better than signing up for a credit union that might not accept your application.

Also, you can buy CDs from ANY bank thru Schwab, Fidelity, etc, if you really want to do a CD. You get to pick the bank (or more than one) with the best rate without signing up for an account with that bank.

On this deal, my two cents: the commitment of buying a CD for a 9+ month term at the minimum they're asking for here isn't worth the extra 0.15%, unless you're CERTAIN you can't do anything better with the $ for 9+ months.

Funding is easy, but how you withdraw after the CD maturity

If you have treading account, just fund it and get $USFR.

USFR pays 5.30% Dividend every month.

No hassle to open new accounts/transfer money and lock money in CD. Also easy on tax filing to avoid additional 1099 etc.

Robinhood isn't as reputable as Vanguard, Charles Schwab etc.
There's no one to call if there's a problem.
