Membership Share 

The $5 Membership Share represents your individual membership in the Credit Union and is necessary to maintain membership in good standing. Your Membership Share is held in a non-transactional status separate from your savings account; you will not see the Membership Share appear on your monthly account statement or in Digital Banking. This share will remain in place for as long as you are a member of BFSFCU and will be returned to you at account closure.

Savings Accounts

Choose the Savings Account that best fits your needs.

Our basic Savings Account has no account maintenance fees and no minimum balance requirements to open or earn dividends. Dividends are paid and compounded quarterly.

Our Money Management Savings Account pays money market rates on a tiered structure. The higher your balance, the more you earn. Dividends on the tiers are calculated on the balance in the account at the end of each day, and are compounded and paid monthly. There is no minimum balance requirement to open the account. A $2,500 minimum balance is required to earn dividends.
