Regular Share
A Savings Account, also referred to as a Share Account, is an insured, dividend paying account that is required for all members of Diversified General Federal Credit Union. A Savings Account can be opened with as little as $5.00 and entitles you to all the benefits and privileges of being a credit union member! Your $5.00 is your share in the Credit Union, this makes you a member. (See our rates)
As a member you can take advantage of the great low rates on loans and access to all of the services provided by the credit union including personal loans, auto loans, certificates of deposit, checking accounts, IRA’s and much more! Plus, you receive the added benefit of personalized attention and the friendly service of our professional staff. Special Savings Enjoy the flexibility of opening a free Special Savings account that can be used to save for anything you want. Put aside money for holiday gifts, vacations, large purchases, or even for major monthly expenses and enjoy the convenience of keeping track of these extra pockets of savings separate from your main Savings account.
Club Accounts

Accounts are automatically renewed each year, and funds are disbursed by automatic deposit to your Diversified General FCU checking or savings account. Christmas Club pays in October, just in time for holiday shopping! Saving money for a special occasion just became easier with a separate savings account. It’s free. It’s easy. You can earn interest.

Now is the time to prepare for your future. No matter what stage you’re at in life, savings now with an IRA can better prepare you financially for your future, especially during retirement. Whether you are just beginning your career, planning for your family, or approaching retirement, it’s never too late to start saving with a Traditional or Roth IRA and take advantage of the many benefits they can offer along the way.
Save it for retirement.
Even if you are soon-approaching retirement or are already retired, you may want to consider increasing your annual contributions (if eligible) or rolling over your other retirement plan assets to an IRA to get the more out of saving while you can.
Remember that the “R” in IRA stands for retirement, which is the main purpose for having an IRA. So you will want to set yourself up as well as you possibly can-as soon as you can-to get the most from your savings when you need it the most. Let Diversified General Federal Credit Union help you get started with your own IRA today.
