Investment Accounts

Building wealth starts with putting your money in the right place. At Foundation Credit Union, we offer three straightforward ways to grow your savings: certificates of deposit (CDs), Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs), and money market accounts. All are designed to reward members with competitive rates and flexibility. Whether you’re saving for a short-term goal or planning for a comfortable retirement, our investment accounts give your money the opportunity to work harder for you.

Certificates of Deposit (CDs)

A certificate of deposit is one of the safest and most reliable ways to earn more on your savings. When you open a CD at Foundation Credit Union, you deposit a set amount for a fixed term and earn a guaranteed, higher rate of return than a standard savings account — no market risk, no surprises.

Why Choose a CD Through a Credit Union?

As a not-for-profit financial cooperative, Foundation Credit Union returns value directly to members through competitive CD rates that are often more favorable than those at traditional banks. Your deposits are federally insured through the NCUA, so your investment is protected. A CD is an excellent fit if you have savings you will not need immediately and want a predictable, higher return over a defined period.

Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs)

An IRA lets you save for retirement on your own terms, with tax advantages that can significantly boost your long-term financial health. Foundation Credit Union offers IRA options that put you in control of how and when you save, making it easier to build the future you envision, whether retirement is decades away or right around the corner.

Retirement Savings Designed Around You

Unlike employer-sponsored plans, an IRA gives you flexibility over your contributions and investment timeline. Saving through a credit union IRA also means a more personal, member-first experience, with real people available to help you make decisions that align with your financial goals. Talk with our team to learn which IRA type best fits your situation.

Money Market Accounts

A money market account combines the earning potential of an investment account with the accessibility of a savings account. At Foundation Credit Union, our money market accounts offer competitive, tiered interest rates — meaning the more you save, the more you earn — while still giving you the flexibility to access your funds when you need them.

A Flexible Way to Earn More

A money market account is a strong option if you want to earn more than a standard savings account without locking your money into a fixed term. Like all accounts at Foundation Credit Union, your money market account is federally insured through the NCUA, giving you peace of mind alongside a better return. Talk with our team to find out if a money market account is the right fit for your savings goals.
