Is a money market account right for you?

A Gold Share Money Market Account could be a good fit when you have at least $2,500 to set aside but still want access to your money.

Consider using it for:

  • An emergency fund
  • Home repairs or improvements
  • A future vehicle purchase
  • Taxes or other planned expenses
  • Travel or a major life event
  • Savings you are not ready to place in a certificate

Unlike a certificate, a money market account does not require you to leave your money deposited for a set term. However, monthly withdrawal limits apply.
