Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs)

IRAs are accounts that allow you to save with tax benefits. Our IRA’s are available as an IRA share account or IRA Certificate of Deposit. IRA share accounts are paid interest quarterly. IRA certificates are offered with the same terms and conditions as all other certificates of deposit.

 

 

Certificates of Deposit (CDs)

CDs are an insured savings alternative that has a fixed term and a fixed rate. Southwest Heritage Credit Union offers five different terms and the interest rate is based on the level invested. The minimum balance to open a certificate is $1,000. Interest is paid monthly. The penalty for early withdrawal is 90 days interest for 6 month and 12 month terms; 180 days interest for all other terms. Certificates of Deposit rates can be increased based on services you already have. Check out the savings rate page for more information.
