Once you start saving regularly your funds build up quickly. Each share saved is eligible for a dividend at the end of the year. The more savings you have the bigger the dividend you receive.
Our members can rest easy in the assurance that their savings are safe. All your savings are covered under the Government Deposit Guarantee Scheme up to a maximum of €100,000.
We offer a free life cover on savings up to €5,000 (subject to Terms and Condition). The amount paid will depend on the member’s age and savings history with us as it rewards consistent and regular saving.
Savings as shares in a Credit Union are a better way to save. You are an active member of a highly successful financial co-operative. You have a share in the ownership of the Credit Union and your shares support giving loans to you and you fellow members.
