BluCurrent Credit Union Money Market Accounts FAQs

For all accounts, dividends will begin to accrue when cash is deposited. The amount of money you will earn each day on a noncash deposit (such as a check) will be calculated by the Daily Balance method, which takes the balance in your account each day and multiplies it by a specific rate. The daily dividend total is added to the account at the end of the Dividend Period. Dividend calculations are based on a 365-day year.
The Dividend Period is the time in which an account earns dividend credit. The Dividend Period begins on the first calendar day and ends on the last calendar day. Dividends on a Money Market are compounded monthly and credited monthly.

The Annual Percentage Yield (APY) and the interest rate are closely related but different concepts. Here's a breakdown:

  • Interest Rate:
  • This is the nominal rate at which interest is paid on your deposit. It does not take into account the effect of compounding.

  • Annual Percentage Yield (APY):
  • This reflects the total amount of interest earned over a year, including the effects of compound interest. Compounding occurs when interest is added to your balance, and then that interest also earns interest over time. Since APY includes compounding, it is typically higher than the nominal interest rate.

    How much you'll earn depends on how much you contribute to your money market account and how often. Our credit union money market offers tiered rates, so the more your savings grow, the higher the APY you'll earn.

    Here's an example to help give you an idea of how much you can earn. If your money market account offers an APY of 3.05%, you make an initial deposit of $2,500 and don't add or withdraw any of the funds for a year, then your deposit would earn approximately $76.25.

    Statements are generated monthly unless there is no transaction in the particular month. In any case, you will receive a statement at least quarterly.

    The biggest difference between a CD and a money market account is liquidity. You can easily access funds in a money market account. You can also make deposits to a money market account, but you cannot add funds to a CD. You would need to open a new CD if you wanted to make an additional deposit.

    Another difference is interest rates. A CD has a fixed rate for the entire term, whereas a money market is variable. As rates change in the market, it's likely your money market rate will change. When you open a CD, your rate is locked at a set rate for the term you select.
