Chase CDs

Chase also offers certificates of deposit, a type of savings account with a fixed interest rate that also requires you to keep your money deposited for a certain amount of time. Chase’s CD offerings include many term lengths, from one month to 10 years. But the CDs have a $1,000 minimum opening deposit and better rates can be found elsewhere.
