frequently asked questions
1. What does a tiered savings or blended saving account entail?
a. A “tiered-rate” or “blended” savings account is one that pays different rates of interest depending on the amount of funds held in the account. Unlike traditional savings accounts, this account gives you the highest rate on the lowest tiers, which means that you earn a better rate of return on lower balances, while still earning a competitive rate on higher balances.
b. Blended APYs assume the dollar amount will be held in the account for one year.
2. Is my money locked in for a year or five years like a C.D.?
a. No, you can have access to your money and can make up six automatic or preauthorized transfers from your shared savings account per calendar month. You can make a withdrawal at any of our branches or ATM’s and/or you can transfer money online between your accounts. View your account balance and transaction information quickly and easily with online and mobile banking. You will not receive a penalty or fee if you withdraw from the account.
