Help us make a great place even better

Tight-knit communities. Incredible people. We love Western North Carolina. That’s why we created the Go Local term certificate. Your deposits in a Go Local certificate help to support local affordable housing initiatives, small businesses, first-generation homebuyers, and projects that boost the local economy. You’ll earn a competitive return with guaranteed rates. Best of all, you’ll be investing in a community you care about. Your money really can make a difference!

  • Terms range from 3 months to 5 years
  • Guaranteed returns for the length of your savings term
  • In general, longer term certificates feature higher dividend rates
  • Funds are insured up to $250,000 by the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) to protect your investment
  • Early withdrawal may result in loss of dividend income,** but your initial investment is never at risk
