Share Savings Account - all members are required to open this primary savings account to become a member and to take advantage of our other savings accounts. A Share Savings Account is a safe and efficient way to accumulate funds or immediately liquidate savings for emergencies, education, vacation expenses, and more.

Sub-Share Savings - a Sub-Share account is perfect for budgeting and planning for expenses such as family vacations, college tuition, vehicle purchases, annual insurance premiums, and much more. Up to 6 Sub-Share Savings Accounts can be opened under the Share Account to assist with budgeting and planning for special purchases and upcoming events. These accounts are fee-free and can be “nick-named” to keep track of the purpose of the account. Dividends are compounded daily and credited to your account quarterly, with no minimum balance required.

Share Certificates (CD) - lock in our best yields and get the return you want with a Share Certificate, which offers you great rates and flexible savings terms. Share Certificates earn a higher percentage rate over a traditional savings account and offer automatic renewal options. Share Certificates are available in terms from 6 months to 12 months, with a minimum deposit of $500.00. Dividends are compounded daily and paid quarterly. The longer the term, the greater the savings! 

Christmas Club - avoid the financial stress of the holiday by saving a little bit all year long. A Christmas Club account encourages members to deposit funds into the account throughout the year. This account is frozen from withdrawals and all funds will automatically roll over to your Share Account on October 31. There is a small fee imposed if the account is closed before the rollover date, to encourage you to keep the money in the account for the intended purpose. The maximum deposit that can be made is $5,000.00.

Individual Retirement Accounts (IRA) - When you open an individual retirement account (IRA) at NLCFCU, you can manage your savings conveniently from your own financial institution. Browse our offerings to see which one is right for you.

• A Traditional IRA is a potentially tax-deferred retirement plan, where you won’t pay taxes until you withdraw your funds. Contributions can be made as long as you are below 70 ½ years of age and have earned compensation.
• When you open a Roth IRA, you’ll pay taxes now and be able to withdraw the funds tax-free. Distributions can be made after 70 ½ years of age without any required minimum as long as you have earned compensation.
