Annual Percentage Yield (APY). The APY and dividend rates are effective as of 11/16/2024 and may change at any time without notice. A minimum deposit of $250.00 is required to open and earn APY. The APY for all Share Certificates assumes the dividend will remain in the account until maturity. Withdrawal of dividends prior to maturity will reduce earnings. A penalty will be imposed for the withdrawal of the principal before maturity. At maturity, Share Certificates will renew at the same term unless you inform us otherwise. Jumbo rates apply for deposits of $100,000 or more. *New Money Only

How are Money Market dividends compounded?

Money Market dividends are are compounded monthly, and posted monthly.

Are my deposits insured?

We are  federally Insured by the NCUA. The National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund  was created by Congress in 1970 to insure members' deposits in federally  insured credit unions. Each credit union member has at least $250,000 in total coverage in individual accounts.

The  Share Insurance Fund also separately protects members’ IRA accounts up to  $250,000 and provides additional coverage for members’ trust accounts.

The  Share Insurance Fund has the backing of the full faith and credit of the  United States. Credit union members have never lost even a penny of insured savings at a federally insured credit union.

‍

When is the dividend rate in effect?

Dividends start to accrue on the date the  account is funded.

Can I add more money to my CD account?

Funds cannot be added to an existing CD Share Certificate.

Can I withdraw my CD dividends?

Monthly dividends are available for withdrawal without penalty.

How are CD dividends compounded?

CD dividends are compounded daily and posted monthly.

Glossary

Not-for-Profit

Direct Federal is a not-for-profit, meaning that earnings are invested right back into the credit union. And that means Direct Federal can offer lower loan rates and higher deposit rates that you simply won't see anywhere else.

Well-Capitalized Financial Institution

Credit unions are among the most well-capitalized financial institutions, maintaining equity reserves and investments that prioritize needed safety and soundness for their members.


Direct Federal is no exception to this. Our conservative balance sheet management and strong capital position makes us significantly different from financial institutions in the news.
