Capital One 360 CD review

Best for: CD ladder builders who want strong rates across many terms.

Capital One's 1-year CD pays 4.00% — a top-tier 1-year rate — with $0 to open and nine term lengths (6 months to 5 years) that make laddering easy.

How we make money (or don't): BidAsk currently has no affiliate relationships with these banks and earns no commission if you open an account — the links below go directly to each provider's own site, except the Marcus savings link, which is a personal referral link: if you open a Marcus Online Savings Account through it, you earn an extra 1.00% APY for 3 months (per Marcus's referral terms) and the site's publisher earns the same rate boost on his account. See our full disclosure.
Rates verified November 1, 2026. APYs are variable unless noted and change without notice — confirm the current rate on the provider's site before opening an account.

CD terms: 12-month term at 4.00% APY. Nine terms from 6 months to 5 years. Early-withdrawal penalty capped at 6 months' interest even on the longest terms.
