Share Savings
Your primary savings account established your membership, as an “owner” of our not-for-profit cooperative, which is why they are also called “share” accounts. A local credit union is the perfect companion for growing your savings with ease! With just a $50 minimum balance, you can enjoy dividends with no strings attached. Here’s what makes it special:
- Earn 5% on the first $500! (One per member, on the primary share-savings account only, annual percentage yield). Standard dividends apply to balances exceeding $500, or for secondary or auxiliary savings accounts.
- NO NSF Fees! We’re the *only* local credit union that doesn’t charge NSF Fees, AT ALL! We also don’t charge overdraft transfer fee (from other accounts) and our Courtesy Pay is only $10!

Secondary & Auxiliary Savings
Although the special 5% on the first $500 dividend is only available for a member’s primary share savings accounts (one per member), you can open multiple accounts, or auxiliary savings, and they are also free, earning our standard dividends. Flexible Savings: Ideal as a secondary account to tuck away funds for vacations, emergencies, or special projects.

Health Savings Accounts
At Tri-CU, we’re excited to help you save smart for your healthcare needs with our Health Savings Accounts (HSAs)! Perfect for those with a high-deductible health plan, this account puts you in control of your medical expenses while offering tax advantages. Let’s make your health and wealth a priority together!
Your HSA Details
- Tax-Deferred Savings: A special account to cover qualified medical expenses, with tax benefits to stretch your dollars further.
- Flexible Access: Use your funds for current needs or save for future healthcare costs – it’s yours to keep!
- Grow Your Savings: Earn dividends on your balance, with no expiration on your funds.

HSA Details and Disclaimer:
HSAs are great tools for many, but there’s a catch: You can only open an HSA if you are enrolled in a qualifying high deductible health care plan (HDHP). Having an HDHP means that you need to pay a larger amount of out-of-pocket costs before your insurance plan kicks in, but you pay less in monthly premiums during the year. An HDHP could make sense if you or your family are at a point in life where your average yearly medical expenses are manageable. If you already have a HDHP through your employer, you could use an HSA to start saving for your medical expenses right away.
