Share Certificates

UNFORTUNATELY AS OF MAY 7, 2020 – WE ARE NOT OFFERING SHARE CERTIFICATES AT THIS TIME

Share certificates are a great way to put money away and earn a higher dividend rate than you would normally get in a regular share savings account. The minimum balance for a certificate is $500.00, and interest is not compounded. There is an early withdrawal penalty of one month’s interest. It is easy to start a certificate, and it can be done through an IRA, too. When your certificate matures, you can withdraw all or some of it, or let it roll into a new certificate at the current market rates.

Benefits:

Earn higher dividends than basic savings accounts
Maximizes earnings when rates are dropping
Available automatic rollover
Additional deposits permitted at the time of maturity
Renewal grace periods of 7 days
Maturity notices mailed 14 days before maturity date
