Share Account (Savings)
Share accounts require an initial deposit of $50.00 and a maintained deposit of $100.00. Deposits can be made in any amount through deduction or over-the-counter transactions.
All share accounts are insured up to $250,000.00 by the National Credit Union Administration. Share accounts represent a systematic way to save a percentage of your earnings. Dividends are earned and paid quarterly.
West Penn P&P Federal Credit Union usually pays higher rates than other institutions because members are the “owners” and all profits go to them rather than stockholders.
