Earn above-average rates when you commit to saving for a few months or a few years! Term-share certificates (the credit union version of bank CDs) are a smart investment because they reward you for taking a deliberate approach to saving.
Why Choose a Certificate?
Term-share certificates are a smart way to save for large purchases like a vehicle or a home, future expenses like college or retirement, and any other savings goal. You can even use a certificate as security for a loan from Dupaco!
How It Works
Saving (and earning) with term-share certificates is easy. All you have to do is decide how long you’d like to commit to saving and make an opening deposit. After that, your certificate does all the work for you!
- Choose how long you want to save and earn. We offer terms from 6 to 60 months!
- Earn fixed rates that are better than the average savings account.
- Let your savings grow (there’s a penalty for early withdrawal).
- At the end of your term, your certificate will automatically renew.
