Primary Savings Accounts

It all starts with a Primary Savings Account

Become an owner of Novation and start saving

  • Overview

    Save with someone you can trust

    Unlike other financials, credit unions are financial co-ops which means you have ownership in the credit union when you open your Primary Savings Account. Plus, we offer a Secondary Savings account to help you set aside money for a specific saving goal.

    Low $5 to open and maintain

    Getting started is easy.

    No monthly maintenance fees

    Focus on saving.

    Monthly dividends

     

    Safe and Secure

    You can rest easy knowing that your deposits are federally insured by NCUA to $250,000.

    Two Options

    Primary Savings Account

    When you open a Primary Savings Account, you’re joining the Novation family. With just $5, you purchase your share of the credit union and gain access to all the benefits we offer.

    Secondary Savings Account

    If you’re saving for something specific such as taxes, vacation or college, open a Secondary Savings Account to make sure you reach your goal. Never forget what you’re saving for with custom account names like “Tommy’s Braces” or “Week in Paradise.”

    *APY is annual percentage yield. Rates quoted are in effect 7/1/2026 and are subject to change. If interest is paid to another account, APY may vary. Dividends are compounded and paid monthly.
    Dividends calculated by the daily balance method which applies a daily periodic rate to the balance in the account each day. Dividends will accrue on the business day your deposits are posted to your account.

I grew up in a town of 993 people, so I really like the small town feeling I get. They know me by name, they know my account and they are always looking out for my best interest. The staff is just great, very personable. I would never want to go to a big box bank.
