LIMITED TIME OFFER: 4.00% APY, 7-MONTH CERTIFICATE

Strong Roots. Steady Growth. 

We're committed to helping you reach your savings goals faster. For a limited time, you can open a 7-Month Certificate at 4.00% APY*.

Why Choose a TruNorthern Certificate?

  • Secure Savings: Your deposit is federally insured, offering peace of mind with every dollar saved. 
  • Simple to Open: Open your certificate over the phone or in-person at any of our branch locations. 

 

Annual Percentage Yield. 7-Month Certificate Promotional Rate is valid August 1, 2026 through August 31, 2026. Promotion rate is available for a limited time and can be stopped at any time at the discretion of the Credit Union. A penalty may be imposed for withdrawals before maturity. $1,000 minimum deposit with no maximum for new money. Limited time offer. Other rates and terms are available. 

New Money Definition. New money refers to funds transferred from another financial institution to TruNorthern Federal Credit Union. Funds already on deposit with TruNorthern FCU qualify for the promotional rate with a maximum deposit amount of $50,000. To open a certificate over the $50,000 maximum, new money of $50,000 must be matched to create a mix of both new and existing funds. 

Membership at TruNorthern FCU is required to open a Certificate. There is a $25 membership fee to join.
