Nine-Month No Penalty Certificate

A share certificate is your key to a higher rate than standard savings accounts, but what about your money's mobility? With Members 1st Federal Credit Union, you can withdraw and deposit at any time, free of charge. Open a nine-month no-penalty certificate with a $5,000 minimum deposit.

PENALTY-FREE SAVINGS CERTIFICATE

Storing money in one secure location for an extended period works great for some, but everyone is different. If you would prefer the freedom to withdraw from your share certificate before its maturity date, Members 1st has an option for you—a nine-month no penalty share certificate.

Standard share certificates offer higher annual percentage yield (APY) and dividend rates than savings accounts. However, the initial deposit and dividends must remain in the account through maturity.

Our no penalty certificate is different. The deal is just as it sounds—a nine-month savings certificate that gives you the freedom to withdraw funds at any time. Deposit $5,000 or more to access a certificate that grows according to a flat APY rate. You can withdraw as much as you need at any time—just keep your balance above the $5,000 minimum.
