They are a CD locator and try to find you the best available CD rate for a fee. Usually these are promotional rates and have a lot of restrictions. Amount you can deposit, length of term and other type restrictions. If you have a small amount of money that you need to park for a short time they might work OK for you.
For myself there are lots better options out there. An example would be AT&T stock paying a dividend of 6.19% at it's current price and being as it's near it's low, also has upside growth potential.
If you require a 100% safe investment then the 10 year treasury at 3% is probably the best solution.
