In other times, however, locking your money away for an extended period of time can take precedence. And, if you can do so via a high-rate savings account that will result in a sizable profit, that can serve as an added incentive.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Many savers this July find themselves falling into that latter category. With the <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/cpi-report-today-may-2026-inflation-iran-war-trump\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">inflation<\/a><\/span> rate at its highest level since April 2023, minimal <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/june-jobs-report-57000-jobs-hiring-slows\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">job growth<\/a><\/span> and higher <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/fed-meeting-fomc-today-kevin-warsh-interest-rates\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">borrowing costs<\/a><\/span> expected to stay static for the foreseeable future, where you keep your money both now and over the next few years is critical to get right.<\/p>\n<p>This is where a <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/whats-a-certificate-of-deposit-cd\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">certificate of deposit (CD) account<\/a><\/span> can be worth serious evaluation. Interest rates on this account type largely remain over 4% now, and those rates are fixed, meaning that they&#8217;ll hold through the maturity date \u2013 even if that date is multiple years away. And a maturity date two or even three years into the future may be what savers need now, as it will protect their funds for an extended period while still earning them a return that outpaces today&#8217;s inflation rate.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Still, you&#8217;ll need to pay an <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/cd-early-withdrawal-penalties-what-to-know\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">early withdrawal fee<\/a><\/span> on any CD account, and it could be sizable with a 3-year CD, specifically, so you&#8217;ll want to ensure that the return here is worth it before making a deposit. So, how much interest can a 3-year CD account actually earn now? Thanks to the fixed rate it comes with, this is easy to calculate. Below, we&#8217;ll do the math.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bankrate.com\/landing\/cbsnews\/best-cd-options\/?sub-id=www.cbsnews.com\/news\/how-much-interest-can-3-year-cd-account-earn-july-2026\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"sponsored, noopener\">Earn more interest on your money with a top CD account here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>How much interest can a 3-year CD account earn now?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Savers looking to secure as much interest as they can with a CD account are encouraged to shop around to see how high of a rate they can find (online marketplaces make it particularly easy to do just that).\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s how much interest a 3-year CD account can earn if opened now, calculated using one of the top rates available with this term, six different deposit amounts and the assumption that no fees or <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/cd-early-withdrawal-penalties-what-to-know\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">penalties<\/a><\/span> eat away at the returns savers stand to earn:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><strong>$1,000 3-year CD at 4.15%: <\/strong><\/strong>$129.74 upon <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/what-not-to-do-cd-account-matures-july-2026\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">maturity<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<li><strong><strong>$5,000 3-year CD at 4.15%:<\/strong> <\/strong>$648.69 upon maturity\u00a0<\/li>\n<li><strong><strong>$10,000 3-year CD at 4.15%: <\/strong><\/strong>$1,297.38 upon maturity<\/li>\n<li><strong><strong>$25,000 3-year CD at 4.15%: <\/strong><\/strong>$3,243.36 upon maturity<\/li>\n<li><strong><strong>$40,000 3-year CD at 4.15%: <\/strong><\/strong>$5,189.53 upon maturity<\/li>\n<li><strong><strong>$50,000 3-year CD at 4.15%:<\/strong> <\/strong>$6,486.91 upon maturity<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Savers will earn as little as $130, approximately, or as much as $6,487 with a 3-year CD account, if they deposit an amount between $1,000 and $50,000 this July. But the interest earnings here are only one of the advantages this account offers, as it can provide extended protection for your funds in a way that many other savings accounts and almost all investments simply cannot. Viewed through that prism, then, this could be the right account in the right term for your money right now.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bankrate.com\/landing\/cbsnews\/best-cd-options\/?sub-id=www.cbsnews.com\/news\/how-much-interest-can-3-year-cd-account-earn-july-2026\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"sponsored, noopener\">Get started with a CD account online now<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>The bottom line<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>A 3-year CD account won&#8217;t be the right account for every saver or even many.

Start by reviewing the returns outlined above, calculate the amount of interest you could earn if you want to deposit a different amount, and most importantly, start shopping around online now to see how high of a rate you can actually find.
