Supplemental Savings
A supplemental savings is an additional savings account that you can add any time to your account. While this differs from the Share Savings account (which keeps your membership open with Blue), these accounts are a great way to organize your finances and create savings "buckets" for special projects or needs - such as funds to save for your annual car insurance premiums or even that rainy day!
A supplemental share savings has no minimum balance to open, but you must keep a $25.00 daily balance or more to earn your maximum dividend.
Minimum daily balance of $25 required to earn dividends. Dividends compounded daily and paid quarterly.
