Inflate My Rate CD at Neighborhood Credit Union
Published February 16, 2021
Neighborhood Credit Union is announcing a brand-new product: a 25-month term certificate of deposit at 4.50 APY* called Inflate Your Rate. What makes this new service stand out is that it’s what is known as a bump-rate CD.
What is a Bump Rate CD?
A bump-up CD, also known as a certificate of deposit account, is a type of CD that gives members the option to “bump up” or increase the annual percentage yield during the CD's maturity term. Members can request a rate match on Inflate My Rate CD one time before it matures to take advantage of rising interest rates.
For the Inflate My Rate 25-Month Term CD, members have the option to “bump up” their rate if our 18-month term CD rate increases during the member's 25-month term. All the member needs to do is reach out to Neighborhood Credit Union, and we will bump their rate to the current 18-month term APY.
How often can I request a rate match?
Members can “bump up” their rate on new or existing funds only once during its 25-month term. The good news is that members can have more than one Inflate My Rate CD. The Inflate My Rate CD cannot be combined with any other rate offers.
What happens after my CD has matured?
What happens after my CD has matured?
Once the Inflate My Rate CD’s 25-month term is up, it will automatically renew as an 18-month term Standard CD. Once the term renews to the 18-month term, it is no longer eligible for a bump.
