What Makes White Eagle Credit Union Savings Accounts Different?
Putting a little money aside is always a smart move. And whether you’re saving up for a big family vacation, a comfortable retirement or just to have a bit in reserve for the unavoidable rainy day, we can help. Plus, when you open a Share Account at White Eagle, you’ll not only become a member, but also an owner. That’s why our Share Accounts earn dividends instead of interest — although the results are the same in helping your deposits grow.
Savings Options

Auxiliary Share Account
Save with a Purpose
With an Auxiliary Share Account, you can set funds aside for a down payment on a new home, an upcoming wedding — even that special vacation you’ve been dreaming about for years. With a separate account, you’ll be less likely to use the cash for anything else. And thanks to automatic transfers through online banking or payroll deduction, you’ll be surprised at how fast your savings can grow. So you can be prepared for whatever big event you have in mind.
$5 minimum opening deposit; No fees; No minimum balance. Dividends paid on balances over $100; Dividends compounded daily, paid quarterly; Limit two accounts per share account.
NOTE: Variable rate accounts may change after the account is opened. Monthly statements do not include cancelled checks or copies of checks.
