Savings Account Options
Primary Savings Account
This is your ticket to becoming the BOSS! Your primary savings account is your share in the credit union, and all members are required to maintain a minimum $25 in this account.
Heads up! If a Primary Savings is your only account with the credit union, a minimum balance of $300 must be maintained and one transaction must be made per year or your account may be subject to fees. Please refer to Rates & Fees page.Christmas Club Account
Save a little at a time and before you know it, you’ve got the money you need for some extra jingle this Christmas!
Place some cheer in your pocket! Reduce holiday expenses by reserving money throughout the year with a Christmas Club account. There is no minimum opening investment and dividends are paid at the end of each month. Your Christmas Club maturity is the first business day in November each year at which time funds will be transferred to your Primary Savings.
High-Yield Savings (Money Markets)
Want to grow your savings but still want easy access to your money? Great Basin’s High-Yield Savings (Money Market) Accounts offer a higher savings rate than our traditional Primary Savings Account but greater liquidity than a Share Certificate. A minimum $2,500 balance is required.
Certificates
Share Certificate
Little work. Big rewards. With as little as $1,000 for as little as 6 months you can earn a competitive dividend rate just for trusting Great Basin with your money.
