Whether rates move up, down, or stay the same, a share certificate ladder helps you stay flexible while earning competitive returns.

Don’t guess where rates are going. Earn an extra 0.10% APY** with our certificate ladder promotion. This means you can earn 3.90% APY for 8 months, 4.00% APY for 15 months, and 4.10% APY for 23 months when you ladder these certificates. By spreading your savings across multiple maturity dates, you’ll have regular access to your money while keeping the rest working hard for you.

APY = Annual Percentage Yield. The APYs shown for the promotional certificate ladder already include the 0.10 percentage point (10 basis point) increase above the otherwise applicable published APY for each certificate term. To qualify, Maine Savings Federal Credit Union members must establish the promotional share certificate ladder by opening certificates using each of the three specified terms shown. Funds should be distributed relatively evenly among the three certificate terms, with each certificate representing at least 25% of the total amount deposited. Minimum opening deposit is $500 per certificate. The promotional APYs apply to each certificate’s initial term only and do not carry over at maturity or renewal. Program availability is subject to change, and Maine Savings may modify or discontinue the offer. A penalty may be imposed for early withdrawal. Fees, if applicable, may reduce earnings. Federally insured by NCUA.
