•   What is a share certificate and how do they work?

  A share certificate is a type of savings account that pays a fixed interest rate over a specified term. This financial product is designed for members looking to earn higher returns on their savings while enjoying the security of a guaranteed rate.
  
  When you open a share certificate, you agree to deposit your funds for a predetermined period. In return, you'll receive a fixed interest rate, which is typically higher than that of a regular savings account. At maturity, you can access your principal and the earned interest.
