Bankrate's picks for the top 10-year CD rates

Discover Bank: 3.80% APY; $2,500 minimum deposit to open

Few well-known banks offer 10-year CDs. One exception is Discover Bank, which offers CDs across all standard terms. The bank’s yields for its five-, seven- and 10-year CDs are the same, and they’re higher than the rates tied to the rest of its accounts.

Discover is an online bank headquartered in Greenwood, Delaware. Until August 2000, it was known as the Greenwood Trust Co., which was incorporated in 1911.

Vio Bank: 2.75% APY; $500 minimum deposit to open

Vio Bank is an online-only bank that offers CDs and a high-yield savings account with competitive rates. CD terms range from six months to 10 years.

How to find the best 10-year CD rates

Since few banks and credit unions offer 10-year CDs, finding the best rates may be challenging.

Compare offers with deposits backed by the federal government. Look closely at deals from online financial institutions.

Remember, few institutions offer certificates in this term, but you may find a better deal in your own search.

Methodology for Bankrate’s best CD rates

At Bankrate, we strive to help you make smarter financial decisions. We follow strict guidelines to ensure that our editorial content is unbiased and not influenced by advertisers. Our editorial team receives no direct compensation from advertisers and our content is thoroughly fact-checked to ensure accuracy.

Bankrate regularly surveys around 70 widely available financial institutions, made up of the biggest banks and credit unions, as well as a number of popular online banks.

To find the best CDs, our editorial team analyzes various factors, such as: APY, the minimum deposit needed to earn that APY (or to open the CD) and whether it is broadly available. All of the accounts on this page are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. (FDIC) or the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA).

When selecting the best CD for you, consider the purpose of the money and when you’ll need access to these funds to help you avoid early withdrawal penalties.
