How can you buy US treasury ee Savings Bonds?
Banks sell them.
Will a Series EE savings Bond pay interest beyond its maturity date?
Upon maturity the Series EE savings bond stops paying interest which brings up an interesting option for holders of matured savings bonds. Since the banks are paying close to zero on savings there is really no financial penalty for holding the Series EE bonds past the maturity date. In addition, federal tax on the interest earned on the savings bonds are not due until the bonds are actually cashed in which gives the holder the flexibility of shifting income to a particular year. For someone nearing retirement and holding Series EE bonds which have matured it would probably make sense to hold off on cashing in the bonds until retirement when the bond holder would probably have lower income and thus a lower tax rate.

It's a alphabetical number system. From Wikipedia: The first modern U.S. Savings Bonds were issued in 1935, to replace United States Postal Service Bonds.

When you receive a savings bond worth 100 dollars can you cash it right away?
The tradition of giving someone a savings bond as a gift has largely disappeared since all purchases must now be done electronically. As of January 1, 2012, paper savings bonds are no longer issued by the U.S. Treasury although millions of Americans still hold previously issued paper savings bonds. Typically, a savings bond cannot be cashed in shortly after purchase. For example, a purchaser of the I or EE Savings Bonds must hold the bond for one year before being allowed to cash it in and an early redemption penalty applies if redeemed before 5 years.
How many years does it take for a series EE 100 bond to mature to full value?

The bond rate from 2011 to 2013 continues to be very low: from 0.20 to 0.30 percent for EE bonds, and a variable I bond rate (inflation adjusted) of less than 2%.
Can I use a credit card to buy bonds?
I assume you are referring to US Governement bonds. (EE or I-bonds). Currently, you cannot use a credit card to purchase bonds. They use to allow credit cards, but they discontinued it because they had to pay the extra credit card processing fees. Now you have to open an account with them through the Treasury Direct program and link your checking or savings account in order to purchase bonds from them. Or you can use your stock brokerage account to buy bonds as an alternate means. There are several online websites that offer payments of bonds with credit cards. Some banks may also offer the option of paying for a bond with a credit card.
