Grow your savings safely with CDs and IRAs

A CD and IRA offer guaranteed returns and low starting balances. You choose how long to save while enjoying the freedom to reinvest or adjust your plan. It's a secure, flexible way to build for your financial future.

  • Guaranteed growth with a fixed APY
  • Flexible maturity dates from six to sixty months
  • Reinvest your deposits at maturity or ladder multiple certificates of deposit

What is a CD?

A Certificate of Deposit (CD) is a type of savings account that earns interest when kept in the account for a pre-determined length of time. There are penalties to withdraw money from the account before the account has “matured” or reached the end date. However, you can choose the length of time that works best for you, that’s why CDs come in so many different terms!

Benefits of a Flex CD

Flex CDs offer the same secure savings from a traditional CD, plus added flexibility to fit your financial goals. A Flex CD is a smart option if you’re looking to grow your savings—but still want a little flexibility along the way.

  • One-time penalty-free withdrawal—Access up to 25% of your principal during the term, without losing any earned interest.
  • One-time rate bump—If our CD rates go up during your initial term, you can take advantage of a one-time rate upgrade.
  • One-time additional deposit—Add to your account with one extra deposit (up to your original deposit amount) during the term.
  • NCUA insured—Your money is federally insured and protected.

Flex CD benefits apply to CD accounts only and are not available for IRAs.

Did you know?

You can create a CD Ladder Investment Strategy! Open multiple certificates each with a different maturity month or year so that you have money maturing on a regular basis, providing penalty-free access.
  • Choose terms at intervals that work for you – every year or more frequently if you think you might need access to your funds sooner.
  • There is no limit to the number of CDs in your “ladder.” With a minimum deposit of $500, you choose the amount and maturity date of each certificate.
