New Growth Certificate Accounts**

A growth certificate is a savings product that allows you to add funds over time, unlike a regular certificate where you make a one-time deposit only. This makes it better for incrementally saving towards a goal while locking in a great rate. Once your certificate is open, you can keep adding to it anytime, with total deposits up to $100,000. Get started with just a $100 deposit at account opening.

**Deposits are federally insured by the NCUA. Fees may reduce earnings on the account. After the certificate is opened, additional deposits can be made to the certificate at any time with a maximum of $100,000 of cumulative Growth CertificateTM deposits per primary account holder. A deposit of at least $100 is set up at account opening.
