When it comes to building a financial safety net and planning for the future, having the right savings account can make all the difference. At Rio Grande Credit Union, we offer a variety of savings products tailored to meet the diverse needs of our members. Whether you're saving for a rainy day, a dream vacation, holiday expenses, or just looking for a solid way to grow your money, we have an option for you.

Let’s explore our offerings and find the best fit for your lifestyle.

Traditional savings account

Our Traditional Savings Account is the cornerstone of financial security. Ideal for those looking to start or maintain a general savings fund, this account offers competitive interest rates, ensuring your money grows steadily over time. It's perfect for members who want easy access to their funds while earning interest on their balance.

Secondary savings account

For those who prefer to organize their savings into different categories, the Secondary Savings Account is an excellent choice. This account allows you to earmark funds for specific purposes, such as education, home improvements, or emergency funds. It’s a flexible option for members who want to manage multiple savings goals simultaneously. Like our Traditional Savings Account, it also offers competitive interest rates and easy access to your money.

Vacation club account

Dreaming of a getaway? The Vacation Club Account is designed to help you save specifically for your travel plans. By setting aside a little each month, you can accumulate funds without dipping into your regular savings. This account typically restricts withdrawals until your set vacation period, encouraging disciplined saving and ensuring you have enough money when it's time to book that dream trip. It’s the perfect tool for turning your travel dreams into reality.

Christmas club account

The holiday season can be financially stressful, but our Christmas Club Account is here to help. This account allows you to save gradually throughout the year, so you’re well-prepared for holiday expenses. Funds are usually disbursed in November, just in time for holiday shopping, travel, and festivities. With this account, you can enjoy the holiday season without the stress of last-minute financial strain.

Rainy day club account

Life is full of unexpected expenses, and our Rainy Day Club Account is designed to help you prepare for those unplanned costs. This account encourages you to build a financial buffer for emergencies, such as medical bills, car repairs, or other unforeseen events. By consistently setting aside funds, you create a safety net that can provide peace of mind in times of need.

Finding the right fit

Choosing the right savings account depends on your individual financial goals and lifestyle. If you're looking for a versatile option, the Traditional or Secondary Savings Accounts are excellent choices. For goal-specific savings, consider the Vacation Club or Christmas Club Accounts. If you prioritize financial security against unexpected expenses, the Rainy Day Club Account is the way to go.
