Savings Accounts To Fit Your Needs
A savings account is your key to the membership at FreeStar Financial Credit Union. Your savings are insured up to $250,000 by the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA).
A money management account offers the flexibility of access to your funds with a greater return on your investment. The minimum amount to open is $1,000 (new money not currently on deposit with FreeStar Financial).
Special savings accounts are separate accounts established by members who wish to save for a wedding, the holidays, a special event, or even a rainy day fund.
