Fixed terms start from two months up to five years. And you only need $5,000 to get started.
Important to note: A 31 day notice period and fees apply for early withdrawals.
Flexible interest payment frequency
For investments of one year or more interest can be paid annually or monthly. For investments less than a year, interest is paid at maturity.
