Here at Best CD Rates Info, we haven’t looked at the latest in Everbank CD rates in a while, so we thought we’d bring you an update. There are some compelling options in CD rates at Everbank Direct right now.
Probably the Everbank Direct CD rates that have been getting the most visibility in the news lately are their innovative MarketSafe certificates of deposit. These Everbank CD rates are tied to three precious metals: gold, silver, and platinum, and are a limited-input, 5-year term offering that will close on Thursday this week.
The return depends on the market price of the three metals, but you are guaranteed not to lose capital as part of the investment. Given the skyrocketing value of gold, silver, and platinum and their continued expectations to do so for the foreseeable future, these could end up being some of the highest CD rates available today, bar none.
Another unusual option in Everbank Direct CD rates are the CDARS offers, a network-based, large deposit certificate of deposit offering. The FDIC allows insurance coverage of up to $50 million on these unusual CDs and rates start at 0.24% annual percentage yield (APY) for 3 months, go up to 0.44% for 6 months, then 0.75% APY for a year, and 1.22% APY for 2 years. Not as high as other options, but great for high-deposit amounts.
Finally, standard Everbank CD rates start at 0.70% APY for 3 months, 0.95% APY for 6 months, 1.01% APY for 9 months, and 1.24% APY for a year. Very competitive. At 18 months they return 1.44% APY, at 2 years 1.75% APY, and a 2.5 years they give 1.85% APY. 2.00% APY is for 3 years, 2.43% APY for 4 years and finally 3.05% APY for five years. All extremely competitive.
Rates at Everbank are FDIC insured and Everbank Direct CD rates can change at any time.

At 18 months, the rate goes up to 1.60% APY and at 2 years it jumps to 1.90% APY. Those aren’t the best available, but they are competitive.
30 months gives 2.05% APY and 3 years gives 2.25% APY. Four years goes up to 2.45% APY and 7 years jumps to 3.25% APY while 10 years yields 3.50% APY.
