High Yield Savings
A High Yield Savings account to help your money grow
Our High Yield Savings account is designed for members who want to see their savings climb. It’s perfect for building an emergency fund, a car fund, or simply growing your money faster over time.
What is a High Yield Savings account?
A High Yield Savings account pays a higher dividend rate than traditional savings accounts, helping your money grow more quickly. With consistent activity, your savings can gain momentum to reach your goals faster.
This account earns dividends on an inverted tier structure meaning you can earn higher dividends on a lower balance.

How much can I save?
Primary Savings
A traditional dividend-earning savings account
Your Primary Savings is the first account you open when you join as a member at Canyon View Credit Union.
What is a traditional savings account?
A traditional savings account offers easy access to your money while also ensuring it stays in a secure, federally insured institution. Some traditional savings accounts also pay interest on your balance so they are both safer and more lucrative than other savings methods (i.e. checking accounts or storing your savings under a mattress). Shopping for rates and terms before choosing your savings account is a safe way to save for a rainy day or earn dividends on the money you save.
