Money Market & Certificates

Saving alone can’t always prepare you for your life and retirement. Our investment options will help you build the future you want for yourself and your family.

Money Market Accounts and Share Investment Certificates

SAFE’s money market investments are the solution for anyone who wants to earn more than a traditional savings account while keeping the peace of mind that comes with federal deposit insurance. 

 The Money Market and Share Investment Certificate options are available through SAFE, each with their own advantages and requirements. 

Money Market Accounts 

With a Money Market Account from SAFE, you earn an attractive yield without sacrificing liquidity. Make deposits and withdrawals as needed while your deposits benefit from daily interest compounding. Dividends are paid monthly so your earnings are easily accessible, too. 

Here are some more important facts about money market accounts with SAFE:

  • Minimum Opening Deposit – $0.01
  • Minimum Balance to Earn Dividends – $0.01

Benefits

  • Dividends compounded and paid monthly

Share Investment Certificates 

Unlike a savings or money market account, SAFE’s Investment certificates allow you to lock in an attractive interest rate and rest easy knowing exactly how much your deposit will earn. 

Select the investment term that best suits your financial needs, while enjoying a degree of lenience when it comes to making withdrawals. 

Check out more important information about this account option below: 

  • Minimum Opening Deposit –$1,000 
  • Available Maturity Terms –3-6 months
  • If balance is above the $1,000 minimum, account holders may make incremental $100 withdrawals with a penalty of 30 days interest charged on the withdrawn amount 
  • Account holders may withdraw credited dividends at any time without penalty 
  • Account holders may withdraw funds ten days after their maturity date without penalty

Share Certificates 

Low risk, high reward. That’s the SAFE Share Certificate advantage. With seven different certificate options at your disposal, you can select an investment strategy that advances your personal financial goals. 

Youth Investment Programs 

When you invest in future generations, you invest in yourself—and the well-being of the community at-large. That’s SAFE’s perspective. 

And that’s why our youth investment options—the MOTster Youth Certificate and Y Certificate—are so important. Get to know more about these unique tools for financial literacy below. 

MOTster Youth Certificate

  • With an extra-low minimum deposit of just $100, our MOTster Youth Certificate offers twelve-month investment terms for kids under 12 years of age. Interest rates are equal to those offered with SAFE’s Investment Certificate option for older members. 
  • The reduced minimum deposit requirement makes this the perfect resource for parents who want to put their child on a lifelong path of financial awareness and well-being.

Y Certificate 

  • With a minimum balance requirement of $500, Y Certificates represent the next stage in the investment process for young members as they develop their financial skills. 
  • These certificates offer twelve-month investment terms and are available for youths aged 13-17. Like our Money Circus Certificate, interest rates for a Y Certificate are the same as those offered on SAFE’s Investment Certificate option for adult members.
