REGULAR SHARE ACCOUNT

The share account is similar to a passbook savings account, but it offers many special benefits: It represents your share of member-ownership; generally, it pays higher dividends than comparable accounts elsewhere. (see our current dividend rates)
 
Choosing an Individual or Joint Account
 
bulletThe individual share account is held in one person's name only, and only he or she may conduct account transactions. Children accounts are also available to the children of our members.
 
bulletThe joint share account is set up in the names of two or more persons, often husband and wife, and is arranged so that either party can make transactions on the account individually. 
 
Payroll Deduction Benefit
 
bulletThis service makes automatic deductions from each paycheck, so it's easier to "pay yourself first." Deductions may be deposited to your regular share account (or draft account, your choice), in any amount you designate. If, for example, you are paid bi-weekly and designate $20 per paycheck, your annual savings would be $520 plus dividends. Over time, you would benefit from your saving habit and the compounding of your dividends!
 
SHARE DRAFT ACCOUNT
 

As a member of the credit union, you can open a draft (checking) account that offers:

 
bulletDebit cards available 7/1/01
bulletNo monthly fees 
bulletDividends for accounts with balances exceeding $1,000
bulletNo per-check charges
bulletNo minimum balance requirement 
bulletPaycheck direct deposit
bulletOverdraft protection
bulletLine of credit
 
Overdraft Protection
 
You may take advantage of the overdraft protection (safety-net) option that automatically transfers funds from your designated share account(s) to your draft account to cover any "Non-Sufficient Funds" items. There is a $2 fee for each such transaction.
 
Line of Credit
 
bulletQualified borrowers may take advantage of our line of credit option, which protects your good credit rating by covering "Non-Sufficient Funds" items. The line of credit option automatically advances funds (at an increment of $100) to cover any items posting to your account, up to the pre-approved loan limit.
 
bulletThere is no cost to establish a line of credit and no cost to maintain the service when it is not in use!
 
Automatic Paycheck Direct Deposit
 
bulletEnjoy the convenience of direct deposit when the net amount of your paycheck is posted automatically to your draft account. Funds are available on payday, saving the time, gas and effort of making deposits in person!
 
bulletOther checks which may be deposited via direct deposit include federally-recurring checks, such as Social Security; and certain corporate payroll checks, utilizing electronic funds transfer. Your joint account owner may also deposit directly to his or her account. Ask your Payroll Department for details.

TERM SHARE CERTIFICATE ACCOUNTS

bulletTerm Share Certificate Accounts offer a wide variety of options for almost every investment need. Dividends are keyed to current market conditions, and generally, these rates are higher than those for Regular Share Accounts. The rate assigned at the time of purchase will remain fixed until your certificate matures. (see our current rates for term share certificates)
bulletPlease Note: Early withdrawal of certificate funds before the maturity date will result in a penalty. See your term share certificate agreement for details.
