Christian Family Credit Union provides you with a variety of savings accounts to meet your individual needs. You can open a share savings account for as little as $25. You can add to your account anytime. In fact, you can even have money payroll deducted and deposited to your share savings account.
You have the freedom to withdraw your money at anytime without penalty. Additionally, you may earn competitive dividends on your savings.
Our Christmas Club and Vacation Club Accounts allow you to save a little at a time, so your money is there when you want to take the family on a relaxing vacation or pay for gifts during the Christmas season.

Certificates
If you are looking for the safety of principal and higher earnings than what is traditionally paid on savings accounts, our Share Certificates may be the perfect place to deposit your hard-earned money.
You can open a Share Certificate for as little as $500 and choose from terms ranging from six to 60 months.
Share Certificates are also available for your IRA, and Required Minimum Distributions (RMD) may be withdrawn without penalty.
We may impose a penalty if you withdraw from your account before the maturity date. The penalty amount for share certificate accounts may be up to one year of dividends. The penalty is calculated as a forfeiture of part of the dividends that have been or would be earned on the account. It applies whether or not the dividends have been earned. If the account has not yet earned enough dividends or if the dividend has already been paid, the penalty will be deducted from the principal.

Health Savings Accounts (HSA)
A Health Savings Account (HSA) is a tax-exempt custodial account established exclusively to pay or reimburse Qualified Medical Expenses you and/or a qualified family member or dependent incur.
Eligibility: To be an eligible individual and qualify for an HSA, you must meet the following requirements as established by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS):
You must be covered under a High Deductible Health Plan
You must have no other health coverage except what is permitted by the IRS
You must not be enrolled in Medicare
You cannot be claimed as a dependent on someone else’s tax return
Maximum Contribution Limits: The amount you or any other person can contribute to your HSA depends on the type of HDHP coverage you have, your age, the date you become an eligible individual, and the date you cease to be an eligible individual. For 2024, if you have self-only HDHP coverage, you can contribute up to $4,150. Individuals not participating in an HDHP the entire year may be restricted to lower funding levels. If you have family HDHP coverage, you can contribute up to $8,300. Individuals age 55 and over may make an additional contribution annually of $1,000.

Certain restrictions apply.
