What is a Certificate?
Certificates, also referred to as Certificates of Deposit, CD’s or Share Certificates, are a type of savings account that allows you to hold a fixed amount of money for a set amount of time (term) and have HFCU pay you a fixed interest rate. Certificates are a low-risk way to earn interest and make your money grow! When the term approaches maturity, you can decide to withdraw your money or roll the money into another certificate to keep earning more.
