Certificates of Deposit

YOU CAN EARN MORE WITH MEMBERS FIRST CERTIFICATES OF DEPOSIT.

Members First Credit Union of Florida Certificates of Deposit (CD) are the way to go when you have money to put aside and won’t need to access it for a while. We’re excited to help you experience safe and guaranteed growth on those savings.
 

Certificate of Deposit Basics

Certificates of Deposit (CD) or Share Certificates are deposits with a built-in timeline. You can’t withdraw from CDs whenever you want (without incurring a penalty). Instead, you wait until the CD reaches what is known as a maturity date. The further away the maturity date, the longer the term length. Generally speaking, the longer the term length is on a CD, the higher the interest rate will be. 

Interest

Help your savings grow. You'll earn
interest monthly on your CD. Plus, you
can receive a higher interest rate with a
CD than a standard savings.
 

Insured

Your savings are federally insured
to at least $250,000 by the NCUA
(
National Credit Union Administration,
a U.S. Government agency).
 

Choices

There are a variety of CD term lengths,
so you can use CDs for goals that
are anywhere from a few months
to a few years away.
 

 

Choosing the Right CD for You 

STANDARD CERTIFICATE
You have your choice of a short-term or long-term investment that will pay out higher dividend rates than a savings account. You will earn interest monthly, which we can either post to your CD, deposit into a specified account, or mail to you as an interest check.

  • $500.00 minimum deposit to open
  • Your CD's maturity date can range from 30 days to 10 years*
  • If you choose a maturity of 24 months or longer, it will become a No Penalty CD (this means you can convert the current rate to a higher rate once during the life of the CD)
