Is CD better than savings?

Savings accounts, money market accounts and CDs typically differ in terms of their interest rates, restrictions, benefits, fees and level of risk. Furthermore, a savings account or money market account may make sense for short-term savings, while a CD is better suited for longer-term savings needs.

What happens if you withdraw money from a CD before it comes due?

Banks and credit unions can offer you a guaranteed interest rate because your money will be inaccessible for the term of the CD. If you need to access the money in your CD before its maturity date, you’ll generally have to pay an early withdrawal penalty.
