Business Certificates

A Share Certificate is the credit union version of a Certificate of Deposit (CD). It’s an account you deposit money into for a certain period of time. That money then earns dividends over that period.

Your funds are fully insured by the federal government (NCUA) up to $250,000 so your money is safe and sound while the dividends compound every quarter. It’s a low-risk way to earn a high return on your money.

Here's how it works

  • Deposit a minimum of $1,000 with a guaranteed Annual Percentage Yield1.
  • Collect dividends that are compounded and credited monthly.
  • At the end of your certificate’s term, withdraw your money plus the dividends you’ve earned, or roll over your earnings into a new certificate.

Benefits
