A money market account is very safe. Money market account deposits and earnings are insured by the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) at credit unions and by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) at banks and other financial institutions. The NCUA provides members of Space Coast Credit Union and other federally insured credit unions with a total of $250,000 in coverage for single ownership accounts. The funds in a money market account are also typically invested in lower-risk investments.

A money market account is a type of savings account. Money market rates are typically higher than other types of savings accounts while offering access to funds more easily than many investment accounts. Deposits to credit union money market accounts, such as the Money Market accounts we offer at SCCU, are insured by the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA), a U.S government agency.

A money market account (MMA) may also be referred to as a money market deposit account (MMDA) or money market savings account. Please note that money market deposit accounts are not the same as money market funds or money market mutual funds.

A money market account can be a good choice for keeping six to 12 months of living expenses at hand. Since money market accounts combine some of the best features of a checking account and a savings account, you can earn interest on your money while keeping it accessible for unexpected events or emergencies.

Each has it pros and cons and each may have its place in your overall savings strategy. Here is how they compare:

  • A certificate of deposit (CD) has higher interest rates than regular savings accounts. Because a CD is opened with a fixed annual percentage yield for the entire term of the deposit—which range from six to 60 months at Space Coast Credit Union—it may be a good choice if you want a guaranteed rate of return and don't anticipate needing fast access to your money. The funds in a CD are not available via ATMs, transfers or checks and there are penalties for withdrawing money before the CD's term expires.
  • A savings account offers lower interest rates than CDs or money market accounts, but the funds in a savings account are the most accessible of the three types of accounts.
  • A money market account offers both high yields and safety. The account has higher interest rates than savings or interest checking accounts and offers easier access to funds than a CD. Minimum deposits to open a money market account are typically higher than those of savings accounts and check-writing privileges are limited compared to regular checking accounts.
