Deposit Accounts

Genesee Co-op FCU offers a variety of deposit accounts including:

Basic Dividend Earning Share (SAVINGS) Accounts

Genesee Co-op FCU does pay dividends (interest) each quarter on the Member Share account when you maintain an average daily balance of $25 dollars or more. Click to see our current savings rates.

Statements are issued quarterly, unless the member has a Share Draft account which results in a monthly combined statement.

Member Since 2003

"I love doing business with the Credit Union. While I really like to keep my life simple and close to home, I've kept my accounts with the Credit Union even though I recently remarried and moved a little further away. I just feel welcome, established, and connected there. It feels good to support such a human-sized institution where accounts and lending are handled with compassion and common sense - not just by numbers or a computer program. I feel that by depositing my money at the Credit Union, I am helping it be possible for that money to be lent out to help good things happen for other people. I want my son, Dylan, to be positively influenced by that experience, too."
