First Credit Union Savings Account |
Because you are a credit union member/owner, your savings are called “shares,” and the quarterly interest you earn on those shares are called “dividends.” Share savings accounts:
• Offer an unlimited number of transactions in person.
• Can be opened with a deposit or through direct deposit.
• Require a minimum balance of $5.
• Can provide overdraft protection to your checking account (federal regulations require a limit of 6 electronic transfers per month from your savings account).
