The required primary account that establishes your SCCU membership is our Business Share Savings Account. As a member of our credit union, you're also an owner, which is an important difference between banks and SCCU. We're guided by a board of directors who are also members of SCCU and who keep the best interests of all of our members in mind.

  • Small business experts who can help guide your banking decisions and who understand your local market.
  • Access to local decision makers to simplify approval processes for loans.
  • Branch locations that make in-person banking convenient.
  • Comprehensive online services, such as bill paying and the easy transfer of funds between your accounts.

Our Business Money Market Account gives you the best of both a checking account and savings account. Your money remains liquid, safe and easily accessible while earning interest. That means that funds you may have otherwise held in a checking account are helping you make money. Since business money market accounts are, in general, highly liquid, you have the freedom to easily withdraw your money when you need it rather than wait to complete a minimum term, such as those on certificates of deposit.
 
At SCCU, you also have the advantage of having your Business Money Market Account funds insured by the NCUA up to $250,000, and per federal regulation you may make up to six transfers and electronic payments—such as direct bill payments and overdraft transfers—each month. In addition, withdrawals by ATM or in person are unlimited.

All three offer ways for you to earn interest but each has its advantages and limitations. Here is an overview of the general differences:

  • Business money market account rates are higher than savings accounts. With SCCU's Business Money Market Account, you have both safety and high yields, and can easily access your funds since they remain liquid. Money market accounts have limits on the number of electronic transactions that can be made during a month's time and require a certain balance be maintained in order to avoid monthly fees.
  • Certificates of deposits (CDs) typically offer the highest interest rates among all savings accounts and provide a guaranteed rate of return. When you open a CD, the annual percentage yield will be fixed for the term of the deposit, which may range from a few months to several years. Requirements vary per financial institution, but there are penalties for withdrawing your money early. Unlike savings accounts and money market accounts, CDs don't give you access to your funds via checks, transfers, or ATMs.
  • Savings accounts allow you fast, easy access to your money. Interest rates on savings are lower than on CDs and money market accounts, but there are no limits on the number of monthly withdrawals and low minimum balance requirements. Savings accounts can also be opened with a lower deposit amount than money market accounts and CDs.

Your SCCU Business Money Market Account is an account that bears interest and does so at a higher interest rate than other business savings accounts. For your peace of mind, your deposits are insured by the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA), which is an agency of the federal U.S. government.
