Raisin is not an FDIC-insured bank or NCUA-insured credit union and does not hold any customer funds. FDIC deposit insurance covers the failure of an insured bank and NCUA deposit insurance coverage covers the failure of an insured credit union.

How do we bring these rates to you? Partner banks and credit unions use Raisin to reach new savers nationwide. Raisin gives you access to all of these exclusive rates in one place, while your money stays at federally insured partner banks and credit unions.

Answers to frequently asked questions

A no-penalty CD lets you lock in a fixed interest rate while maintaining the freedom to withdraw your full principal and earned interest early without paying a fee. You can open one through Raisin with as little as $1. 

To earn your base welcome bonus, use promo code STACK when registering your new account between September 1 and September 30, 2026, deposit at least $10,000, and hold those funds continuously for 90 days. You have a full 14-day funding window starting from your first deposit to make multiple transfers and reach a higher bonus tier.

Satisfying these base requirements is mandatory to unlock and earn the optional bonus boost. You can add this boost during your 14-day window by spreading your funds on the platform across at least two distinct product categories by day 14. You must allocate at least $1,000 to your secondary product category. The eligible product categories are:

  • Category 1 (Savings): High-yield savings accounts, money market deposit accounts, and "rate-lock" savings accounts
  • Category 2 (CDs): High-yield CDs
  • Category 3 (Specialty CDs): No-penalty CDs and callable CDs

Yes. You retain 100% of the interest earned up to the day you withdraw. Unlike traditional CDs, there are zero early withdrawal penalties after an initial 7-day holding period.  

An HYSA has a variable APY that can drop if market rates fall. A no-penalty CD locks in a fixed rate for the full term, protecting your yield while still giving you the flexibility to withdraw early if you need cash or find a better rate.  

Per federal regulations, you can withdraw your full balance penalty-free starting 7 days after funding your account. After that window, you can transfer your money back to your linked external account through the Raisin dashboard with most transfers settling in 1 – 2 business days.

¹New customers only. Earn a cash bonus (the "Welcome Bonus") when you deposit and maintain funds with partner banks on the Raisin platform. Customers will receive a Welcome Bonus of $40 for depositing between $10,000 and $24,999; $100 for depositing between $25,000 and $49,999; $200 for depositing between $50,000 and $99,999; $425 for depositing between $100,000 and $199,999; and $900 for depositing $200,000 or more. If the Qualifying Deposit balance declines at any time during the maintenance period below the minimum required for a bonus tier, the customer will be placed in the bonus tier corresponding to the lowest Qualifying Deposit balance maintained during that period. 

Savings + CD Boost: Customers eligible for the Welcome Bonus may earn an additional bonus by opening a product in a second product category. To qualify, customers must deposit at least $1,000 into the secondary product category within 14 days of their initial deposit and maintain balances over $1,000 in both categories through 90 days from the initial deposit date.

For the purposes of this promotion, High-Yield Certificates of Deposit constitute one product category; No-Penalty CDs and Callable CDs constitute a second product category; and Savings Accounts (including Money Market Deposit Accounts, High-Yield Savings Accounts, and Rate Lock Savings Accounts) constitute a third product category. Savings + CD Boost eligibility is determined by your Welcome Bonus tier: customers depositing between $10,000–$24,999 receive an additional $10; $25,000–$49,999 receive an additional $25; $50,000–$99,999 receive an additional $50; $100,000–$199,999 receive an additional $75; and $200,000 or more receive an additional $100.  

The Savings + CD Boost is optional and paid in addition to the Welcome Bonus. To qualify for the Welcome Bonus and Savings + CD Boost, your first deposit must be initiated between September 1, 2026, and September 30, 2026, by 11:59 PM ET, and the promo code STACK must be entered at the time of sign-up. Only funds deposited within 14 days of the initial deposit date and maintained with partner banks on the Raisin platform for 90 days of the initial deposit date will be eligible for the Welcome Bonus and Savings + CD Boost. Bonus cash will be credited directly to your Cash Account within 30 days of meeting all qualifying terms. This offer is available to new customers only, is non-transferable, and may not be combined with any other bonus offers. Raisin may modify or end this offer at any time and may withhold or revoke bonuses in cases of fraud, abuse, or violation of these terms or Raisin’s Terms of Service.
