Get more for your money with our leading savings rates

Thanks to our high deposit rates, we make generous payments to your savings accounts and those contributions mean you end up with a good deal more than you started with. Even our Certificates of Deposit (CDs) are not a one-size-fits-all savings option. You can choose from investments of various lengths, ranging from six months to five years. Although all of MECU's CDs offer exceptional returns, you can often get a higher rate if you invest for a longer period.
