Our Share Savings account establishes your Cobalt Credit Union membership, and we also provide club savings or money market accounts as well as certificates (CDs).
Savings can be as easy as 1 - 2 - 3
You will be surprised at how quickly these pennies add up to real savings!
ENROLL: First, you must have a Cobalt Credit Union debit card that you use for daily purchases and ask to be enrolled in Round Up.
SHOP: Use your card for everyday purchases such as grocery items, restaurant, and online purchases. Don’t forget to use this card for online and recurring payments to collect the most change.
SAVE: Sit back and watch the savings grow! We'll round up your purchase to the nearest dollar amount and transfer the change to your savings account — or a holiday or vacation club account.
All you need to get started:
A checking account with debit card and a savings (or holiday or vacation) account.

Any withdrawals beyond the 6 allowed, including Point of Sale transactions, will incur a Regulation D Excessive Withdrawal Fee per transaction processed.
