We offer a variety of C.D.'s at The Guaranty. You can invest in a Guaranty State Bank C.D. for as little as 1 month or as long as 60 months! Annabeth Moritz-Nicholson, Asst. Vice President - CD services, or Tami Pruitt, Senior Vice President & Marketing Officer, can tailor a savings plan that is suited for you. The Guaranty's C.D.'s are FDIC insured.
Another unique investment at The Guaranty is our Educational C.D. This is a C.D. that is designed to come due when a child graduates from high school. It can be started at any time and in any amount. Additional deposits may be made whenever you wish. The C.D. earns the highest rate of interest that the bank is paying. The interest rate is subject to change every three years. After the child graduates from high school, the C.D. can be continued as long as they are a student.
E-mail us or stop by the bank soon for details on The Guaranty's C.D.s!

Tips for Card Safety
Get personal. Sign your card as soon as you receive it.
Trust your memory. Don't write your Personal Identification Number (PIN) on your card. Memorize your PIN, or if necessary, store the number in a safe place, separate from your wallet or wherever you keep your card. If you select your PIN, select one that's easy for you to remember, but difficult for someone else to guess. Don't use your birthday, phone number, or social security number as your PIN.
Keep it secret. Never give your PIN number to another person, especially a stranger.
Be prepared. Make and store a record of your card numbers along with telephone numbers for reporting lost or stolen cards. If you lose it, report it. Call The Guaranty State Bank immediately if your card is lost or stolen. Your timely response can help protect your account. There is a $10.00 fee to replace lost or stolen cards.
Save the receipt. Save your sales receipt and review them against your account statement, making sure the information is correct. If you see a purchase you don't recognize, contact The Guaranty State Bank immediately.
Keep a secret. Tear up and discard any sales slip copies you don't need. Strangers can use your account numbers to make unauthorized purchases, or counterfeit your card.
Too good to be true? Never give your card number to anyone or any organization to receive a "free" gift.
