The Impact of Saving More
Easy Ways To Use Your CUTX Savings Account
Set up Automatic Transfers
An easy way to save more is by setting up automatic transfers to your savings account. Even as little as $5 every week will start to add up.
Use It To Build Or Repair Your Credit
Deposit the amount you want to secure into your savings, then apply for a Secured Loan. You'll start building credit with every monthly payment you make back toward your savings.
Use It For Overdraft Protection
When an unexpected overdraft occurs, using your savings account for protection may be cheaper than an overdraft fee. Not recommended for those who overdraft more than ten times per year.
