Minimum certificate deposit of just $500
Lock in a favorable rate for entire term
Guaranteed returns* with funds protected by the NCUA

An investment that pays off in so many ways

When you open a Women & Children's Term Certificate, you can choose a savings term ranging from 3 months to 5 years. But your money will go to work even sooner! Your investment helps sustain all our community lending, including our loans to women-led businesses and nonprofits, home loans to women, and more.

  • Minimum certificate deposit of $500. 
  • Guaranteed returns as long as you allow your certificate to reach its maturity date.
  • Early withdrawal may result in loss of dividend income*, but your initial investment is never at risk. 
  • Funds are insured up to $250,000 by the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) to protect your investment.
