Searching for a great rate?
Take your savings to new horizons with three exceptional ways to earn bigger returns!
With a certificate account, enjoy a guaranteed rate for the full term. It’s a stable, secure way to save while earning higher returns than traditional savings or money market accounts. We also offer IRA certificates, which provide the same security and guaranteed returns, while helping you save strategically for retirement.*
Looking for flexibility? Our Bonus Savings account rewards members with a higher rate for using their debit card, with no service fees and no limits on how much you can earn. To qualify, simply sign up for eStatements, and make 20 or more debit card purchases a month.*
No matter which option you choose, a Solarity certificate or Bonus Savings account can help you reach your financial goals faster. Don’t miss these great rates!
