Accounts to Help You Achieve Your Savings Goals
The Savings (Share) Account is the primary account for every credit union member. When you open a Savings account and maintain a $5.00 minimum balance you become a member/part owner of the credit union.
Whether you're saving for a specific goal or for a rainy day, be financially prepared for whatever life has to offer. Florida Credit Union Savings accounts can help your balance grow so you can achieve your goals.
Have Money Set Aside for Emergencies
Reduce anxiety at time of need
A savings account set aside for emergencies can help you cover costs that go beyond your monthly budget. It can also help if your income changes. Since you can’t predict the emergencies you’ll face, it is recommended to have three to six months of living expenses just for that purpose.
