- Terms range from 1 month to 3 years
- $1000.00 minimum to open.
- No monthly service fee
- Account must stay open through the contracted term to avoid an early withdrawal penalty.
- Interest rates offered vary with market conditions and paid at term maturity or annually whichever comes first.
- Interest earned may be paid by check, deposited into a First State Bank checking or savings account, or re-deposited into your CD.
Other Requirements: Funds in a CD can be withdrawn at any time, however withdrawals made before maturity are subject to an early withdrawal penalty (half the term’s interest that would have accrued). At maturity, there is a 10-day grace period during which funds can be taken out or added without penalty.
