Share Certificates
You’ve worked hard to save your money—now it’s time for your savings to work for you! With Share Certificates, you put aside cash for a set period of time. During that time, you’ll earn a higher annual percentage yield (APY) on your funds compared to a regular savings account. Here’s the best part: no matter how much interest rates change during the life of your Share Certificate, your rate is locked in—meaning you’ll receive your dividends, guaranteed!
Share Certificate Features:
- Available in terms from 3 to 84 months
- Fixed rates throughout the term and compounded monthly
- Regular, Youth Add-On, and Individual Retirement Account (IRA) available
- Funds can be withdrawn for a down payment on a SFCU loan without penalty
