The minimum deposit to qualify for one of these competitive CD rates is $5,000. Your free gift will also be dependent on how much you deposit into the account. The five levels of deposit are $5,000, $10,000, $25,000, $50,000 and $100,000. Here are some other things you should know before making your deposit:
