Best CD rates today, July 31, 2025 (lock in up to 5.5% APY)
Find out which banks are offering the best CD rates right now. If you're looking for a secure place to store your savings, a certificate of deposit (CD) may be a great choice. These accounts often provide higher interest rates than traditional checking and savings accounts. However, CD rates can vary widely. Learn more about where CD rates stand today and how to find the best rates available. Banks with the best CD rates today CD rates are relatively high compared to historical averages. That said, CD rates have been on the decline since last year when the Federal Reserve began cutting its target rate. The good news is that several financial institutions offer competitive rates of 4% APY and up, particularly online banks. As of July 31, 2025, the highest CD rate is 5.5% APY, offered by Gainbridge® on its 5-year CD. There is a $1000 minimum opening deposit required. Here is a look at some of the best CD rates available today from our verified partners: CD rate predictions for 2025 The Federal Reserve recently began decreasing the federal funds rate in light of slowing inflation and an overall improved economic outlook. It cut its target rate three times in late 2024 by a total of one percentage point. The Fed has indicated it will continue cutting its target rate in 2025. However, it now projects a total of two cuts, down from its previous projection of four. The federal funds rate doesn't directly impact deposit interest rates, though they are correlated. When the Fed lowers rates, financial institutions typically follow suit (and vice versa). So now that the Fed has lowered its rate, CD rates are beginning to fall again. That's why now may be a good time to put your money in a CD and lock in today's best rates. How to open a CD The process for opening a CD account varies by financial institution. However, there are a few general steps you can expect to follow: Research CD rates: One of the most important factors to consider when opening a CD is whether the account provides a competitive rate. You can easily compare CD rates online to find the best offers. Choose an account that meets your needs: While a CD's interest rate is a key consideration, it shouldn't be the only one. You should also evaluate the CD's term length, minimum opening deposit requirements, and fees to ensure a particular account fits your financial needs and goals. For example, you want to avoid choosing a CD term that's too long, otherwise you'll be subject to an early withdrawal penalty if you need to pull out your funds before the CD matures. Get your documents ready: When opening a bank account, you will need to provide a few pieces of information, including your Social Security number, address, and driver's license or passport number. Having these documents on hand will help streamline the application process. Complete the application: These days, many financial institutions allow you to apply for an account online, though you might have to visit the branch in some cases. Either way, the application for a new CD should only take a few minutes to complete. And in many cases, you'll get your approval decision instantly. Fund the account: Once your CD application is approved, it's time to fund the account. This can usually be done by transferring money from another account or mailing a check.

As the $420B Cold Chain Booms, Ergodyne Arms the Front Lines
St. Paul, MN, Aug. 01, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Cold chain logistics is one of the fastest-growing industries in the world, projected to top $420 billion this year alone. That surge comes with rising demand for product, speed, and increasingly, gear that can keep up with the conditions. Ergodyne is answering that call with its rapidly expanding cold storage collection. The worksite safety pioneer just launched its warmest freezer jacket to date, new thermal impact gloves, and merino blend socks—rounding out a head-to-toe system for cold storage and sub-zero work. 'We've built this collection directly with the folks who do it, day in and day out,' said Ergodyne Product Manager, Claudia Weber. Weber credits the quick adaption by major players in the cold chain space to her team's relentless focus on what crews really need. 'I think it's resonating because they know it was not only made for them (the workers), but with them, too.' Field testing with real cold storage teams, ongoing feedback loops, and on-site observations ensure every feature is grounded in real-world utility. An easy to miss but impactful example of this process are the exterior sizing labels found on outer layers, which allows for instant ID off the rack. 'Seems like not a huge deal,' said Weber. 'But to the workers sifting through the gear every day to find the right size, it is.' But as cold storage PPE demand heats up, so does confusion around one of the most asked questions in the industry: What do temperature ratings actually mean? 'There's a lot of misinformation—and even more misunderstanding—about what temperature ratings truly represent,' said Ergodyne President, Greg Schrab. 'We're committed to educating our users and helping them make informed decisions based on the best information available, not assumptions.' To that end, Ergodyne has published a guide aimed at demystifying temperature ratings, laying out what they measure, how they're tested, and why context—like activity level and duration of exposure—matters just as much as the rating itself. Read the full piece here. 'Just like any PPE, cold storage crews need the proper information about their thermal gear to make the right choice for their application,' Schrab continued. 'That's why we've always been as serious about education as we are about innovation.' For more information on the latest in Ergodyne's cold storage collection, visit ABOUT ERGODYNE Since 1983, Tenacious Holdings, Inc. (dba Ergodyne, a Klein Tools Company) has pioneered the development of products that Make The Workplace A Betterplace™. What started with just one product has grown into a line of top flight, battle-tested, Tenacious Work Gear®; all precision crafted to provide protection, promote prevention and manage the elements for workers on jobsites the world over.
