Savings
There are many different ways to save.
The benefits
When you open a Savings Account with DC Credit Union, you can start making plans for the future and invest in what most matters to you.
Put money aside for a special occasion
Whether it’s a much-needed family vacation, a new home, or emergency expenses, our savings account options give you the freedom to plan for tomorrow.
Earn dividends on your money
The more money you save, the higher your interest rate will be, which means you’ll earn more money in dividends each month. And the best part? You don’t have to do anything special to earn higher dividends. Just keep saving, and we’ll take care of the rest.
Build your retirement savings
Investing in your future has never been easier. Our team of financial experts is dedicated to helping you maximize your retirement savings and achieve your financial goals. With personalized customer service and low fees, you’ll have all the support you need to make the most of your investments.

No. You just need an initial deposit of $5. That’s it.
