Youth Club Accounts
Let us teach your next generation the importance of saving & earning dividends from an early age with our Youth Club accounts. Youths are eligible up to age 21.
The only requirement is a $5.00 minimum balance, and a one-time $5.00 membership fee for ages 18 and older.
What makes this account different from our other savings account?
Our Youth Club accounts earn dividends without the minimum $100.00 balance to earn!
This allows them to see the importance of savings & being rewarded with dividends for doing so! Bring the kids in to start their financial well-being journey with Pillar Credit Union. We have many families that are 4th & 5th generation members of our Pillar Credit Union Family. We would be delighted to have you join us.

Health Savings Accounts (HSA)
An HSA gives you the best of both worlds. It helps you get a handle on rising healthcare costs and provides a tax-advantaged way to save.
As long as you don’t go over the limits that apply to your type of insurance coverage (individual or family), you can contribute as much as you want, as often as you want throughout the year. In fact, anyone can contribute to you, even your employer. HSAs have an annual fee of $10 which will be charged at the end of each calendar year.
Give us a call to set up an HSA account.
