Certificate Accounts & IRA FAQ
What are Certificate Accounts?
Certificate accounts allow you to accurately estimate your earnings and make planning for the future that much easier. They earn steady dividends often at a higher rate than most regular savings accounts. They can be a great way to diversify beyond the savings account you may already have, or an excellent alternative to such an account, depending on your needs.
What are IRAs?
The Traditional IRA is the basic account that allows you the flexibility of making regular and ongoing contributions. Contributions to your IRA may be deductible on your income taxes and your account earnings are tax-deferred. (Always consult with a qualified tax or investment advisor for tax deductibility qualifications.)
How do Certificates of Deposit (CDs) work?
A CD is a savings account that locks in your money for a specific amount of time (your term) with a fixed interest rate (stated in APY*) that's typically higher than regular savings accounts.
Is there a required opening deposit?
$1,000 is the minimum to open a Certificate of Deposit.
Are CDs insured?
Absolutely! Your deposits are insured up to $500,000 through the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) and Excess Share Insurance Corporation (ESI) at no additional cost to you!
How do I open an account?
You must be a member of our credit union to open a Certificate Account.
