An IRA Certificate offers higher rates than regular savings along with the benefits of an individual retirement account (IRA). You can choose your Certificate term and contribute up to $6,500 a year from your earned income. You can also choose if you want the tax benefits of a Traditional IRA Certificate or a Roth IRA Certificate.
Like our Share Certificates, an IRA certificate offers guaranteed earnings over a term of your choice. The difference is that you get to choose if you want to pay taxes on your contributions or your future withdrawals.
Dedicated Saver Certificate: Save for specific goals in mind. Automatic transfer of $10 per month is required. You may make a manual transfer of a maximum of $10,000 per month to your existing Dedicated Saver Certificate.
Bump Option: Available on all Regular & IRA Certificate Accounts. Rate is .15% points less than the stated rate.
*Flex Certificate: Great rate with more liquidity than money market accounts. Allows withdrawals the first three (3) business days of each quarter (January/April/July/October). The maximum limit of Flex Certificate is $100,000 with a maximum deposit of $10,000 per month.
*Certificate Special: Annual Percentage Yield (APY) Special rates apply to new deposits only for share certificate of deposits, IRA contributions or rollovers to IRA certificate of deposits. The new rate will remain in effect until the certificate maturity date. A penalty may be imposed for withdrawals before maturity. May not be combined with other rates or offers. The offer is valid for a limited time only.
Once you've chosen your Certificate term, from 3 months to 60 months, you need to decide if you want to open a Traditional or Roth IRA.
A Traditional IRA Certificate is good if you think your income will be higher in the future, so you want to enjoy tax deductions on your contributions now and pay taxes on your withdrawals later.
A Roth IRA Certificate is better if you think your income will be lower in the future, so you want to pay taxes on your contributions now and enjoy tax-free withdrawals later.
Both options let you withdraw funds at the end of your term or move your balance into another Certificate with the same or different term.
