Free MYGA vs CD Calculator Widget for Your Website

As of October 29, 2026, the highest 5-year MYGA rate on the A-rated public rate sheets we track is 6.10% (Delaware Life Pinnacle Plus, sheet effective October 21, 2026), against 4.78% on the 5-year Treasury (October 29, 2026) and 4.70% to 5.00% APY on the best nationally available 5-year CDs.

Your readers ask whether a multi-year guaranteed annuity beats a CD. This widget answers it on your page: a term, a deposit and a tax bracket in, the ending value of the best MYGA, a CD and a Treasury out, before and after tax. It is free, ungated, responsive, has light and dark themes and refreshes every week from our MYGA Rate Index.

Frequently asked questions

Is the widget free?

Yes. There is no fee and no account. You paste one line of code.

What do my visitors see?

A term, deposit, tax bracket and CD rate, then the ending value of a MYGA, a CD and a Treasury before and after tax, with the rates dated and sourced. The result is never hidden behind an email form.

How do you keep the rates current?

The widget reads one data file that is rebuilt every week from the MYGA Rate Index, which records the sheet date of every MYGA rate, the date of every CD reading and the date of every Treasury yield.

What does the attribution look like?

A visible text line under the widget, MYGA vs CD by Hans Goldstein. It is a nofollow link, it cannot be removed with an option and it carries no keywords. If you cite the data in your article, please link the MYGA Rate Index page as a normal reference.

Does the widget collect my visitors' emails?

No, not unless you turn it on. Adding data-lead="1" shows an optional box that emails the visitor their comparison and sends the address to Hans Goldstein, with a plain notice of who receives it. Leave it off and nothing is collected.

Can I change colors?

Yes. data-accent takes a six-digit hex color for buttons and the headline number. data-theme takes light, dark or auto.
