Plan ahead with a business certificate.

A Business Certificate can help your company earn a fixed return on money it does not need immediate access to.

Choose an available term based on your timeline, then let your balance earn until maturity. When the certificate matures, you can use the funds, reinvest them, or put them toward another business goal.

When could a Business Certificate make sense?

Certificates may be useful when your business is setting aside money for:

  • Future equipment purchases
  • Expansion plans
  • Capital improvements
  • Tax obligations
  • Long-term reserves
  • Other planned expenses

Business Certificate rates

Available APYs and dividend rates vary by term and balance.
