Yes, most banks do offer CD's or, Certificates of Deposits. Generally Certificates of Deposits are time deposits, a certain denomination of money that you take a deposit on and that accrues interest until it is 'mature' at which time you can usually extend it, or withdraw it with the interest added. You can usually withdraw your money early but if you do, you will forfeit all or much of your interest.
It gets granted as loans to other customers. Banks make money by lending loans out of the money we deposit with them. In case of a regular savings account, you can withdraw your money anytime you want. So the bank cannot effectively use this money to make profits themselves. But, in case of a Certificate of Deposit the bank knows that you will not withdraw the money until the stipulated deposit period, so they can effectively utilize this money to make a profit and therefore share a percentage of the same by means of a higher interest rate.

The penalty depends on the duration of your CD and how early you cashed it. For example a year CD taken early might cost you 30 to 90 days of interest, longer terms will take more.
CD is FDIC insured, but money market mutual fund is not.
The time at which you can withdraw from a CD Account depends on what the CD Maturity is. These can range from a few months, to a few years. For example, if you have a 5 year CD, you can not withdraw from that account until the 5 years are up.
You will need to know the penalties and fee's for the account if you decide to withdraw money and if you are able to withdraw at anytime or if the money is locked in for a specific timeframe.
Usually the bank will charge you a penalty fee for taking your money out early.
It means that you can withdraw funds or close the CD before the maturation date, but you will not be able to keep the interest you have earned up to that point.

They are certainly able to do so. There has to be a full accounting of the funds in their control. They may need to pay off debts of the estate.
Because they earn a higher interest rate than savings accounts. The interest on CD's is atleast 2-3% higher than savings accounts. On the downside, the money in your CD is not as liquid as your savings account and your bank may charge you a penalty if you withdraw the money before maturity date.
You can always redeem a CD regardless. You don't lose the money, just future interest.
I've bought the game from 2 different places. When I put the CD in, nothing happens. When I access the CD it appears blank. Has anyone heard of this?
