CD (Certificate of Deposit) Rates 
It’s been a long time since Discover Bank led any of our rankings of the best CD rates.
But the unrelenting churn we’ve seen in 2-year certificates of deposit the past couple of months has finally pushed the online bank owned by the credit card company to top of those rankings.
It’s paying 1.80% APY with a minimum deposit is $2,500.
That’s down from 1.95% APY at the start of September, and 2.05% APY at the first of August, when NewDominion Bank offered the best deals.
The next best nationally available 24-month CD rates are:
1.79% APY with a $1,000 minimum deposit from Bank of Internet, an online bank based in San Diego.
1.78% APY with a minimum deposit of $3,000 from NewDominion Bank, with branches in Charlotte and Mooresville, N.C.
1.76% APY with a $5,000 minimum deposit from Melrose Credit Union in Queens, N.Y. Its open charter allows any U.S. resident to join for $1, no matter where they live or work.
All of these banks allow savers across the country to buy CDs over the Internet.
