This summer’s highest yields on 24-month certificates of deposit wouldn’t have made it into our top three just a couple of months ago.
But they still pay significantly more than the national average of 1.47% APY for 24-month CDs — and you’ve got to earn more than that.

The best 24-month CD rates currently available nationwide are:
2.65% APY with a $2,500 minimum deposit from Discover Bank, an online bank owned by the credit card company.
2.65% APY with a $2,500 minimum deposit from Tennessee Commerce Bank, in Franklin, Tenn.
2.50% APY with a minimum deposit of $2,500 from Intervest National Bank in New York City.
2.47% APY with a $10,000 minimum from E-Loan Bank, which is part of the Puerto Rican financial conglomerate that owns Banco Popular.
