The highest paying and longest term certificate of deposit through Truliant is a 5 year term for at up to .75% APY. The APY is dependent upon the amount of the deposit, with the minimum deposit of $250 running at .6% APY up to .75% APY at the largest bracket of $100,000 or more.

Truliant CD Options:

Truliant offers a unique structure for their certificates of deposit. The amount you invest changes the interest rate. For their second longest term of 48 months, the APY varies from .5% to .65% when depositing from $250 to $100,000 or more. Our shorterm term CD is 3 months.

In addition to offering several longer and shorterm term options for certificates of deposit, Truliant acknowledges that some people do not want their money locked away in a certificate of deposit. After all, most banks, including Truliant have a penalty for early withdrawal. Instead, Truliant encourages customers to “ladder” CDs. While you can schedule an appointment to discuss in further detail the concept involves opening up several smaller CDs for shorter time periods instead of keeping your money in a longer term certificate of deposit. You’ll have quicker access to funds and get the same or similar return on investment.

We also offer flex certificates which can have additional deposits as well as a one time rate increase when interest rates go up.

Eligibility

In order to open a certificate of deposit with Truliant, we’ll make you a member of our credit union first, then open a checking and savings account for you. You can then transfer money in and have the interest deposited into those accounts too.
