How does a BFC Sure Thing CD work, you ask.
Unlike traditional CDs, our Sure Thing CD empowers you with a special voucher, ensuring that you stay in control. If interest rates rise, seize the moment by using your voucher to "bump up" your rate to the new, higher rate. In the event of a rate decrease, take charge and "double down" on your deposit with the voucher, maximizing your returns at the locked-in higher rate. It's a CD special where you dictate the terms, providing a level of flexibility that sets us apart from the rest. Don't miss out on securing your financial future with the BFC Sure Thing CD.
Once you open a Sure Thing CD, you will receive a voucher that can be redeemed for one of the following options:
- BUMP UP: To secure a one-time rate increase for the remainder of the initial term, equal to the current rate offered on a term equal to the original term of this account or a six month term on that date of the voucher redemption OR
- DOUBLE DOWN: To add a one-time additional deposit to the certificate. That deposit may not exceed the original amount of the CD for which the voucher was issued.
Either way, you get great rates with great benefits!
