Lock In A Rate. Watch It Grow.

A Share Certificate is one of the simplest, most secure ways to put your money to work. Choose a term, lock in a guaranteed dividend rate, and let it grow.

Certificates earn higher dividends than a FREE savings account, with flexible terms that fit your timeline. Your rate is fixed for the full term, so you know exactly what you will earn from the day you open it. When it matures, keep going or move the funds wherever you need them.

Pro Tip

Think in ladders. Split your savings across certificates with different terms and one matures every so often, giving you a regular chance to reinvest at current rates or take the cash. You never have to wait 60 months to reach it all.

What Is a Share Certificate?

A share certificate is a savings account with a fixed term and a fixed dividend. You deposit a set amount, agree to leave it in place for a chosen length of time, and earn a guaranteed return over that term. Because the money stays put, a share certificate pays more than a regular savings account. At the end of the term you can withdraw the funds or roll them into a new certificate.

You can choose any term from 6 months to 60 months. Longer terms generally earn a higher dividend rate. View the current rates on our Certificate Rates page.
