+SAVINGS ACCOUNTS


4 TYPES OF SAVINGS (SHARE) ACCOUNTS

1. REGULAR SAVINGS: in order to have any other kind of account with us, and in order to be a member, you must have a regular savings account. After you open a regular account you may add one or two signers to your account (joint account). However, only one person on the account is considered a MEMBER of the CU.  If your account is NOT joint, you may designate a BENEFICIARY.

2. SAVINGS SIMPLIFIER (sub-accounts):  sort, separate and organize up to 9 savings accounts for various goals & needs, such as car repairs, vacations, taxes, insurances, tuition, down payments. All appear on ONE statement. To learn more, click here.
