Working with Finwise has been a great experience. All of the employees that I have had the pleasure of interacting with have been more than willing to go above and beyond to help me out and make sure I have everything I need.

Tyler W.Branch Customer | source: Google reviews

I just started with a loan from this Bank. It was a very easy process . They were available for my questions and were clear with the terms of the loan. So far I am pleased with them. I would recommend them to get out of debt.

Lisa C.Loan Customer | source: BBB

I have found Finwise and their officers to be a asset in arranging loans for our customers. Many times they went the extra mile to help the whole process work. I would recommend them to all businesses needing their services.

Frequently Asked Questions

Our experts answer your questions.

No questions matching current filter
  • Can I make additional deposits during my term?

    All deposits must be made at the beginning of your term and can be withdrawn at maturity.

  • How safe is it to stash cash in a CD account?

    CD savings accounts allow you to save with low risk. FinWise Bank is a FDIC insured1 institution. You can rest assured that your CD account will be just as safe as traditional savings accounts.

  • What happens at the end of my CD term?

    At the end of your term, you may withdraw from your account the full amount you deposited into the account plus any interest you have earned while carrying out your term. Or keep it set to auto renew2 for even more earnings!

  • What if I need access to my funds before the end of my term?

    Before opening CD account, you should consider when you need access to your funds. To receive the full benefits of a CD Savings account you should refrain from withdrawing from your account. However, we understand life happens.


    If you withdraw early there is a penalty of 90-day loss of interest. If your Account has not yet earned enough interest so that the penalty can be deducted from earned interest, or if the interest already has been paid, the difference will be deducted from the principal amount of your Account. For fixed rate Accounts, we will use the rate in effect for your deposit.

  • Is a small-dollar loan right for you?

    Small-dollar loans (SDLs) are designed for an emergency such as an unexpected car repair or a large retail purchase. Intended to help consumers meet an immediate financial need and enable them to improve their overall financial situation, SDLs often feature “graduation” provisions that allow successful borrowers to qualify for lower interest rates and better terms the next time they apply for credit.
