How does it work?
We offer two services to give you addedFDIC insurance coverage: IntraFi® Network Deposits CD accounts and DDA/MMDA accounts. When you use these services, we’ll split your deposit into increments less than $250,000 and place these funds across our network of well-capitalized banks. By doing this, your entire deposit remains fully protected, while you continue to work with just one bank.
CD accounts
With CD accounts, you can access insurance on deposits up to $50 million and earn interest rates comparable to CDs. Maturities range from 4 weeks to two years.
DDA/MMDA accounts
DDA/MMDA allows you to place funds into demand deposit and/or money market deposit accounts. You can deposit up to $135 million for each account type. With this option, you can enjoy expanded insurance protection and still have the flexibility to access your funds when you need them.
