CD

What happens to my CD at maturity?

First Internet Bank will send through US mail a reminder of your CD maturity approximately one month in advance of your maturity date. If you use the online banking site, you may also use the personal reminder option to request an electronic reminder prior to maturity. Click Manage Money, select Mobile Banking & Alerts and click Add an alert. If you do nothing, your First Internet Bank CD will automatically renew at maturity. Each renewal term will be the same as the original term, beginning on the maturity date. The rate on the new CD will be the rate in effect for that term on the maturity date.

If you choose not to renew the CD, you will have a grace period of ten (10) calendar days after maturity to withdraw the funds without being charged an early withdrawal penalty. If you notify us prior to the maturity date that you do not wish to renew the CD, we will close the CD on the maturity date and follow your provided instructions.

What should I do to close my CD?

Log in to your online banking account, and go to Support > Send a secure message. We will send you a DocuSign to complete.

Important note: CDs are subject to an early withdrawal penalty prior to maturity. We will send the balance of your CD, less any applicable early withdrawal penalty. If you are requesting that we send the balance to an address other than the address we have on file, the primary account holder must sign the request.
