When you deposit funds into a Share Certificate (similar to a Certificate of Deposit or CD), you’re agreeing to leave it there, untouched for a set period of time while it earns dividends. You’ll lock in a higher return rate than a Regular Savings or Money Market account while it’s there—even if rates go down, you’ll still be earning the high rate you locked in. Learn more about share certificates here.

It depends on the term you choose and the amount you deposit. The larger the deposit, and the longer the term, the more dividends you will earn. Check our current rates or see how much you could earn with our Share Certificate calculator:


¹Rates, Annual Percentage Yield (APY), and terms are accurate as of December 1, 2024 and are subject to change at any time. Fees may reduce earnings on the account. APY is based on the assumption that certificate funds (including dividends) will remain in the account until maturity. There is a penalty for early withdrawal of certificate funds. Minimum balance to open is $1,000. The Special Term Certificates are a promotional product and may change or end without notice. Special Term Certificates will automatically renew at the nearest lower standard term (at the then applicable offered rate), unless you instruct us otherwise (at the then applicable offered rate). The 8-Month Special Term Certificates will automatically renew into the 6-Month Term.
