Share Certificates

Share Certificates

Share Certificates, similar to a bank’s Certificate of Deposit (CD), offer low-risk opportunities for those USSFCU members who don’t need short-term access to their savings. By opening an NCUA insured Share Certificate with USSFCU, members can be assured of a specific return upon the maturation of their Share Certificate term. USSFCU offers a variety of share certificate options, each with a unique term and dividend rate. Below is the list of all USSFCU Share Certificate terms, account types and rates.

**Withdraws and fees may reduce earnings. The minimum balance required to open a share certificate is $1,000.00. You must maintain a minimum daily balance of $1,000.00 in your account each day to obtain the disclosed annual percentage yield. You will earn dividends for every day during the period that your account equals or exceeds the minimum daily balance requirement. The APY assumes dividends will remain on deposit until maturity. The dividend period on your account begins from the date that your account is opened and ends on the maturity date, unless renewed.
***Member has 10 days from the maturity date to make changes with no penalty.

USSFCU puts members first and helps people. Compared to U.S. banks, which forget their humble beginnings and often behave like (they are) above the law. Credit unions seem to have maintained their purpose and USSFCU is among the best. I am proud to be a member and grateful for the service provided by USSFCU.

Easy to become a member and superb customer support. I dealt with two different USSFCU representatives and they were fantastic.

The credit union provides relatively good services and the security updates to the system are noticeable.
