Your share savings account at GKCU represents your ownership in the credit union. By simply maintaining a $25 balance (plus a one-time $1 membership fee) in your share savings accounts, you can take advantage of all the benefits and services of the credit union. With your one share, you have an equal voice on the operations and future of the credit union - that's right - you're the owner - not some stockholder!

Dividends earned on your share savings account are paid quarterly and itemized on quarterly statements. All share saving accounts are insured up to $250,000 by the NCUA. You may at any time, add a joint owner to your savings account, thereby giving another person access to your account and an option for rights of survivorship on your account, but as a joint owner, that person is not entitled to membership benefits. Joint owners, who are eligible are encourages to open their own accounts so they can become a member as well. To open your account, simply stop by any of our branches or call for a FREE New Membership Kit.
