Share Savings account

A disciplined savings program that includes regular deposits can go a long way in your saving for the future. With a BSCU Share Savings Account, you’ll receive competitive rates and earn dividends on balances of just $25 or more. The dividends are compounded and paid monthly and you earn dividends from the day of deposit to the day of withdrawal. Monthly statements help you track your progress.

Build savings faster with Term Share Certificates

Enjoy high, competitive interest rates with a Buffalo Service Credit Union Term Share Certificate. With just a $500 minimum deposit, you’ll receive a competitive rate on a three or six month certificate or a one-, two-, three- or four-year certificate. No matter which you choose, it’s a safe, fast way for you to grow your nest egg.

The interest on term share certificates is compounded and credited monthly, and you can withdraw it each month without penalty. At the end of your term, we transfer the funds to your Share Account. Then if you wish, you can choose a new
rate or term, or renew your certificate at the same term. (Please note: There are penalties on early withdrawals, except for withdrawals of interest.)

Plan for a secure retirement with an IRA

With smart planning now, you can maintain your lifestyle after retirement and do the things you’ve always dreamed of. You’ll look forward to a comfortable retirement if you start setting aside money now. A BSCU Individual Retirement Account (IRA) offers the advantage of tax-deferred earnings. Your retirement will grow tax-free, and you’ll only pay income tax once you begin to withdraw funds from your IRA, when you’re likely to be in a lower tax bracket. (Check our rates page for current BSCU IRA rates.)

BSCU is proud to offer this service with no annual administrative fee. (Please note: BSCU does not currently offer Roth or Coverdell Education IRAs.)
