  • Primary Savings

    Establish your credit union membership and manage your money with ease using any of these classic savings options.

    Save where you are more than your money. 

    No matter how you save – whether it’s a little every day or a lot to reach a goal, we’ve got you covered. Check out our Share Savings Account (your ticket to credit union membership), our Spare Share Savings Account (best safety net ever), or our ChangeUp Savings Account (automate your savings with ease) and find the solution that is best for you.

    • Share Savings: Our easy-to-use ticket to becoming a member. Whatever you’re saving for, all you need is $10 to open a share savings account and become a member of Fortera Credit Union. Enjoy earning dividends on your savings, surcharge-free ATMs all around the world, and access to all sorts of other accounts created with you in mind.
    • Spare Share Saving: Weave yourself a solid safety net. Once you have an established Share Savings account, Spare Share is the first-best second savings account for building an emergency fund or putting away cash to plan for a big purchase.
    • ChangeUp Account: Go from small change to big savings. Every purchase you make with your Fortera debit card gets rounded up to the nearest dollar. That extra change automatically deposits into your ChangeUp account for a rainy day.
