Certificate Accounts

Certificate Accounts 3
Certificate Accounts are a great way to build your savings. They’re a perfect place to store any money you don’t need to use right now, so you can let it earn dividends and grow over time. Certificate Accounts are also considered low-risk, so you can rest assured your funds stay safe while they grow. These accounts differ from regular savings accounts with:

  • A fixed dividend rate
  • A fixed term length that depends on your needs, ranging from 6 to 60 months
  • A fixed date of withdrawal (maturity date)

Various options are available for Certificate Accounts, so you can choose the term and rate that works best for you!

Educational Savings Account 5

College or trade school costs can feel daunting, especially with tuition rising each year. It doesn’t have to be if you have the tools to start saving now for your child’s future!

An Educational Savings Account is a dividend-earning savings account for use on future education costs. Savings will be paid out on the child’s 18th birthday or their first day of college, whichever comes first, and the account must have remained open for at least three years prior to this date. If you withdraw any funds from an Educational Savings Account before this date, it will result in a penalty and the closing of the account.

You can open an Educational Savings Account over the phone or visit any of our branches!
