Share savings accounts are the most basic accounts we offer and a great way to
start saving. All of our share accounts pay quarterly dividends when you
maintain an average daily balance of $250 or more. There are no monthly service
fees for maintaining a share account, and you can make deposits at any time
through payroll deduction, in person, through the mail or by transferring funds
using
MetroWeb or
MetroWeb Mobile.
Primary Share Account
- By opening a primary share account, you establish your membership in the credit
union. We call it a share account because the first $5 you deposit represents your
ownership stake in the credit union — one share. As long as you maintain at least
$5 in your Columbus Metro account, you are eligible to utilize and/or apply for
all the great products and services we have to offer. Maintain an average daily
balance of $250 or more throughout the quarter, and you'll earn dividends at a
competitive rate.
Secondary Share Account
- Secondary share accounts allow you to save for a specific purpose and keep those
funds separate from your primary share account. You can have up to four secondary
shares per account. Best of all, you can choose the name for each secondary share
you have — to help you remember why you're saving in the first place! Like a
primary share, a secondary share account earns dividends when an average daily
balance of $250 or more is maintained throughout the quarter.
