Share Certificate FAQs

A Share Certificate, is a type of savings account with a fixed rate (which is typically higher than regular savings accounts) for a fixed amount of time. It’s viewed as a low-risk way to earn interest on your money. It’s important to note that accessing your funds before the Certificate has matured (the agreed upon term has ended), you will have to pay an early withdrawal penalty fee.

Once locked into a rate and a term, no outside influence can impact the return you receive. That’s what makes these savings accounts attractive to those looking for a low-risk way to earn interest.

Certificates are an excellent low-risk investment, as you are guaranteed a certain amount of interest as long as you keep your money in the Certificate for the agreed upon term. There are many rates and terms to choose from, allowing you to find the right fit for your goals.

Certificates are among the safest ways to save your money. Credit unions are federally insured by the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) to at least $250,000 per individual depositor, which is backed by the full faith and credit of the United States Government. This is the same coverage you’d receive at a bank. You can rest easy knowing your money is safe and sound.

APY: The annual percentage yield, or APY, of an account tells you what effect compounding has on your initial investment. If you deposit that same $1,000 in an account that earns 5.0% compounded monthly, you’ll actually earn 5.12% or $51.20 instead of $50. The APY is a handy way to compare accounts for their true return on investment.

 

Dividends: This is the amount your deposit will earn over the course of a year. For example, if you deposit $1,000 into an account earning a 5.00% APY, you would earn about $50 in dividends over one year.
