Though Truist does provide a couple decent options, for the most part, the annual percentage yields (APY) on its CDs are unmemorable. Add to this the fact that its CDs are comparatively inconvenient to open, and it’s clear many savers will find other institutions a better pick. 

Here’s what you need to know about Truist CD rates. 

Rates are current as of Feb. 3, 2026, and are subject to change.

Truist CD rates and products 

Truist issues standard personal and business CDs as well as CD specials—a small number of term lengths that offer the biggest returns. It doesn’t offer specialty options like jumbo, flex, or IRA CDs.

When it comes to its standard CDs, Truist plays close to the vest with specific term lengths (and even rates), specifying that you’ll have to call your local branch to know the details.

Even more frustrating, you’ll have to visit a Truist branch to open any CDs. Opening your account online is impossible.

CD specials

Truist CD specials are the only CDs that offer noteworthy earning rates. You’ll have just one term option of 15 months as of this writing.

Standard CDs

Truist issues a wider range of standard CD terms than many other financial institutions, offering options that mature in as early as seven days. That said, its standard CDs aren’t anything impressive.

Truist also offers standard business CDs, advertised with similar terms to its standard personal CDs, but you’ll have to set up a meeting with a Truist representative to see the exact offers for your location.
