Why High-Yield Certificates Are a Smart Choice
If you're looking to grow your savings safely, high-yield certificates could be the solution. Offering higher rates than standard savings accounts, they provide guaranteed returns and are perfect for goals like retirement or an emergency fund.
Why WyHy’s Certificate Rates Outshine Competitors
WyHy Federal Credit Union stands out in the market by offering some of the best certificate rates in Wyoming. For instance, while the national average annual percentage yield (APY) on certificates hovers around 1.5%, WyHy’s high-yield options can reach up to 4.65% APY. This competitive edge ensures that your money works harder for you.
Unlike many big banks, WyHy also offers flexible term lengths to suit your financial goals. From short-term certificates that mature in six months to longer-term options spanning five years, there’s a choice for everyone.
