Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, but early withdrawals may be subject to a penalty. Penalties vary based on the certificate term and how early the funds are withdrawn.

At maturity, your certificate will automatically renew for a like term unless you notify us otherwise. We will send you a Renewal Notice before your certificate matures so you can choose to move your funds into your savings or checking account, select a different certificate term, or allow the certificate to renew automatically.
