Three options to help you build financial security

If you or your family had an emergency tomorrow, would you have the funds to handle it? For peace of mind, it's a smart move to start up a Rainy Day fund. At GreenState Credit Union, we offer three ways to build your savings balance automatically.

Pick Your Percent 

  • You can choose to have 2% to 10% of every qualifying deposit1 transferred from your checking account to your Rainy Day Savings account.  
  • Example: If you choose to transfer 3% and then deposit $100, a total of $97 would go to checking and $3 would automatically go to your Rainy Day Savings account.

Debit Card Round-Up

  • Every time you use your GreenState debit card, the transaction total is rounded up to the nearest dollar and the change is transferred to your Rainy Day Savings.
  • Example: If you use your debit card for a purchase of $20.27, it would round-up to $21 and transfer $0.73 from checking to your Rainy Day Savings account.
