Royal Credit Union (Except as specifically described, the following disclosures apply to all accounts.) Rates are posted throughout the website and may change from time to time. Current rates are always available by calling 833-8168.
1. Services Information. In order to receive any services from RCU, the Member must open a Savings Account and maintain a $5 minimum balance.
2. Balance Information. The minimum balance required to open each account is set forth in this packet. The minimum monthly balance required to avoid a service fee is set forth in this packet. Dividends are calculated by the daily balance method that applies a daily periodic rate to the principal in the account each day.
3. Nature of the Dividend. Dividends are paid from current income and available earnings after required transfers to reserves at the end of the dividend period. The Dividend Rate and Annual Percentage Yield are the prospective rates and yields that RCU anticipates paying for the applicable dividend period. The Annual Percentage Yield assumes all dividends remain and are not withdrawn from the account.
4. Rate Information. The Dividend Rate and Annual Percentage Yield on your accounts are set forth in this packet. All accounts are considered variable rate accounts except the certificate accounts and the fixed IRA accounts that are contractually fixed rates. The Dividend Rate and Annual Percentage Yield may change monthly on the variable rate accounts as determined by the Board of Directors. The Annual Percentage Yield assumes all dividends remain and are not withdrawn from the account.
5. Compounding and Crediting. Dividends will be compounded and credited as set forth in the account description portion of this packet. The dividend period for all accounts is monthly beginning on the first calendar day of the month and ending on the last calendar day of the month. The exceptions to this are the Certificates and the Fixed IRAs, which are detailed below.
6. Account Limitations. The account limitations for all accounts except Checking Accounts are no more than six preauthorized, automatic, or telephone transfers may be made from these accounts to another account of yours or to a third party in any one month and no more than three of these six transfers may be made by check or draft to a third party. If you exceed these limitations, your account may be subject to a fee or be closed.
7. Accrual of Dividends. Dividends will begin to accrue on the non-cash deposits (e.g., checks) on the Business day you make the deposit to your account. If you close your account before accrued dividends are credited, accrued dividends will be paid.
8. National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund: All Member accounts in RCU are federally insured by the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund.

Generally, we offer certificates with maturates of three, four, six, eight, twelve, eighteen, thirty, forty-eight, and seventy-two months. We offer a premium rate if the deposit is $50,000 (Mini Jumbo Certificate) or more. A Member may get a quarter percent higher rate if they meet certain criteria of services used at RCU. The Member will receive the premium rate if they have an active Checking Account (an active Checking Account is defined as 10 Checking Account and/or Check Card transactions per month) plus five other services. These relationship prices are included in the rate sheets available to the Members. All rates disclosed in this packet are assuming that the dividends earned are left in the investment and compounded. Withdrawal of the earned dividends will reduce future earnings.
