A bank/credit union CD will usually give you two options:
- Let the interest collect/reinvest in the CD and take all the money at the end of the term. (Note: Brokered CDs don't do this).
- Collect the interest as-you-go, usually monthly or quarterly.

Then, at the end of the term the bank CD has the big *gotcha*.

You have x number of days after the CD matures to take your money out. You have to do in that timeframe. If you do not, it rolls over into another CD of the same term (I.E. 1 year CD makes a new 1 year CD). That new CD probably won't have your awesome promotional rate, and you get *R$#(ed if you let them do that.

So, if you buy a bank CD, have a calendar reminder to take the money out at the right time!
5% not 5.5% (a 60 days 0.5% bonus is awarded for depositing $1k). However, when rates drop so will the interest in Robinhood, the CD is locked in. Not financial advice.
Savings account rate can dip at any time.

Sure the funds are locked in with a CD, but so is the rate.

Obviously you're not supposed to put emergency funds in a CD. Just funds you're sure you don't need for a while.

You'd have to go with different ownership.

You could go with a different bank for the 2nd CD.

Or, you could put the 2nd CD in your spouse's name, and make a 3rd CD joint-owned.

Each spouse's individual account is FDIC insured up to $250k and the joint account up to $500k. $1 million total.

A couple credit unions. Ignore the variable CDs.

Two points:
- Many credit unions have a mechanism for you to join through some third-party. Check their website.
- Be sure to punch in your zip code. Sometimes the regional deals beat the national deals. That's pretty common where I live.

Quote from DelightfulCrow1116 :
I know they are FDIC insured up to $250,000. What if you have more than that amount that you want to put into a CD? Are you able to make multiple CD accounts under your name and they will each be insured up to $250,000?
It would have to be a different type of account like a joint account or IRA.

Quote :
The standard deposit insurance coverage limit is $250,000 per depositor, per FDIC-insured bank, per ownership category. Deposits held in different ownership categories are separately insured, up to at least $250,000, even if held at the same bank.

Wf is 5%? Im only getting 4.65%(wellsfargo platinum savings)
Not sure what the rate at Wealthfront is but it might be a variable rate that is subject to change. Your wells fargo *might* be 4.65% FIXED for 12 months if you signed up during one of their promotions.
