A credit union savings account lets you securely store your money and earn modest interest. Credit union members run these cooperatives as owners and customers, emphasizing competitive rates. At Greater Central Texas Federal Credit Union, we are more than a financial institution - we are your financial success partners. Our diverse savings accounts, including IRAs, Club accounts, Share Certificates of Deposit, and Regular Share Savings, empower your financial future.
Following is a list of the benefits of opening a savings account with a credit union:
- Interest Rates: Credit unions often provide competitive interest rates on their savings accounts. This means that your money can grow more quickly over time through earned interest. Take advantage of our competitive interest rates that help your savings flourish.
- Fees: Credit unions generally have lower fees for their accounts and services. This can help you save money on things like account maintenance, ATM usage, overdrafts, transaction fees and more. Credit unions generally offer robust online and mobile banking platforms with features like bill pay, fund transfers, and account management with little to no extra charges.
- Member Ownership: Being a member of a Credit Union gives you a sense of ownership and a say in the credit union's decisions, as well as potential voting rights for matters such as board elections.
- Personalized Service: Credit unions often provide more personalized and attentive customer service. Since they are community-oriented and have a smaller customer base, they can focus on building stronger relationships with their members.
- Community Focus: Credit unions are typically rooted in the communities they serve, and they often prioritize local needs and initiatives. By using the services of a credit union, you are supporting the local economy and community development.
- Financial Education: Many credit unions offer free financial education resources, workshops, and seminars to help their members make informed financial decisions. This can empower you to manage your money more effectively.
- Focus on Member Needs: Since credit unions are member-driven, they are more likely to focus on your financial well-being rather than maximizing profits.
- Deposit Insurance: Our savings account provides peace of mind as the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) backs deposits up to $250,000.
At Greater Central Texas Federal Credit Union, we are committed to providing you with the tools you need to achieve financial success. Our savings account is a powerful resource that combines security, growth, and accessibility - all while being tailored to your needs.
