What’s a CD? For some, CD stands for compact disc, which was used to record and play music once upon a time, in an age before smart phones and iPods. But that’s not the type of CD we’re talking about here. In the financial world, "CD" stands for "certificate of deposit." What is a certificate of deposit and how does it work? What’s a CD? For some, CD stands for compact disc, which was used to record and play music once upon a time, in an age before smart phones and iPods. But that’s not the type of CD we’re talking about here. In the financial world, "CD" stands for "certificate of deposit." What’s a CD? For some, CD stands for compact disc, which was used to record and play music once upon a time, in an age before smart phones and iPods. But that’s not the type of CD we’re talking about here. In the financial world, "CD" stands for "certificate of deposit." If you’re unfamiliar with certificates of deposit, it’s an investment tool that allows you to turn the tables on the lender. Instead of paying interest on a loan, the bank pays you interest on a deposit. What is a certificate of deposit? As the name suggests, a certificate of deposit is a deposit. You deposit a specific dollar amount with a lender, but you agree not to withdraw that deposit for a certain length of time. It could be three months, a year, or even as long as 10 years. For as long as you agree to leave the deposit with the lender, you will earn interest on that deposit. Once your certificate of deposit has reached what’s called its “maturity date,” you can withdraw that money, penalty-free. Like a cherry on top of an ice cream sundae, you’ll also get to pocket the interest. How does a CD work? The most important parts of a certificate of deposit are the interest rate and the length of the deposit. Generally, the longer you are willing to leave your deposit with a lender, the better the interest rate they’re going to offer you. CDs are an appealing alternative to a traditional savings account because the interest rates are often higher and the rates are fixed. It’s considered a safe investment tool because you’re not at the mercy of the market. CDs are also federally insured, so your deposit is protected. You also have the freedom to shop around and find the lender that offers the best CD interest rates. Is a CD right for you? Do you have a chunk of cash tucked away that you don’t need right now? Instead of collecting dust, that money can collect interest in a CD. It can grow into a bigger chunk of cash that you can then use toward a home, a car, or even a boat if you’re looking to set sail. The risk is obviously that, in the event that you find yourself in a bind, you can’t withdraw the funds without paying a penalty. So it’s best not to think of this deposit as an emergency fund. On the flip side, it can remove the temptation to spend that money. You can consider the CD as safekeeping for savings you might be tempted to spend under the right circumstances. If you’re interested in a Certificate of Deposit, get in touch with us ! The sooner you make your deposit, the sooner you can start growing that deposit into something more. Previous Item Next Item

Opening a checking account is a big deal for a lot of people. Suddenly, you have a place to put your money besides your wallet, your piggy bank, or under your mattress. But what does a checking account mean for your credit? It may not be as important as you might think, but knowing what does and does not affect your credit score can be helpful as you start to build your credit history from scratch. Will a checking account affect your credit score? Opening a checking account is a big deal for a lot of people. Suddenly, you have a place to put your money besides your wallet, your piggy bank, or under your mattress. But what does a checking account mean for your credit? It may not be as important as you might think, but knowing what does and does not affect your credit score can be helpful as you start to build your credit history from scratch. Does opening a checking account affect my credit score? Even though opening a checking account is usually the first box you check when you first take steps into the financial world, the cold hard truth is that your credit score does not care. As far as your credit score is concerned, your deposits and withdrawals are your business. There are a handful of exceptions, though. The lender you open your account with may perform a hard inquiry on your credit report. To be clear, this isn’t the norm. Most financial institutions will only make a soft inquiry before opening a new checking account. Soft inquiries have no impact on your credit score, but a hard inquiry could drop your score a few points. Lenders have also been known to make hard inquiries if you sign up for overdraft protection. On that same note, not signing up for overdraft protection and then overdrawing your checking account could impact your credit score. Should you fail to repay the amount in a timely fashion, the lender could turn the matter over to a collections agency. The same thing could happen if you close your account with a negative balance and don’t pay the lender back. Long story short, your credit score is not as excited as you are about your new checking account, but it will be paying attention if you mismanage that account. What affects my credit score? What exactly is a credit score? And who exactly is keeping score? Two good questions that not everyone knows the answer to — even if they might pretend like they do. “Credit score” is such a common financial term today that many people never even question it, when actually understanding how it is calculated can help you boost your score. Credit bureaus are the ones who calculate your credit score. Each of them has their own unique algorithm for calculating credit scores and they are all as tight-lipped as a magician’s assistant when it comes to revealing the specific math behind their algorithms. But what we do know is that five basic financial categories are the keys to determining your score: Payment history. Your payment history accounts for 35% of your credit score. Credit utilization. The amount of credit you have available to you and the percentage of that credit you are using regularly accounts for 30% of your score. Length of credit history. The age of your accounts is 15% of your credit score. The longer your credit history, the better your score, usually. Types of credit. The different types of credit you utilize — credit cards, mortgages, auto loans, etc. — accounts for 10% of your score. New credit. The final 10% of your credit score is determined by how many new lines of credit you have applied for. Opening multiple new accounts in a short period of time can be seen as a sign of financial troubles to a lender. What is a good credit score? Your credit score is a number between 300 and 850. If your score is less than 600, you have what is considered a poor credit score. The sweet spot is between 661 and 780, which is where the good credit scores live. If you’re an overachiever, aim for 781 or higher. If ever you find yourself with a credit score higher than 781, you have done pretty well for yourself. You deserve a gold star, but you’ll have to settle for a great credit score instead.

Your Vibrant deposits are insured up to $250,000 per account holder. If you keep your IRA here as well, that deposit is separately insured up to $250,000. How we protect your money Security When it comes to financial services, security is the name of the game. Our federal savings deposit insurance covers up to $250,000 for regular savings and checking accounts, even IRAs. How’s that for a little peace of mind? Government protection The National Credit Union Administration is the federal agency that insures credit unions, much in the same way that the FDIC insures banks. They cap their coverage at $250,000 per depositor, per institution, for each account ownership category. The whole thing can get a bit confusing, but the idea is there is some wiggle room. Your retirement is covered IRAs are insured separately from your other regular accounts, with the same maximum of $250,000. This means that, between your IRA and regular checking, you can trust Vibrant with half a million of your hard-earned dollars—and maybe even more. Using more accounts for more coverage For example, families can leverage their multiple accounts to increase their coverage beyond the $250,000 limit. If it seems complicated, don’t worry. We can help you set up your accounts to ensure you are getting optimum coverage.

Optional Vehicle Protection Products If you need to cancel ancillary product—such as extended warranties, GAP coverage, or service contracts—contact the dealership or product provider where the coverage was purchased. If you're unsure who to contact, our team can help point you in the right direction. Find a dealership Frequently asked questions How long does approval take? Approvals are almost instant. Once you complete the short application at the dealership, most financing decisions come back within minutes, so you can finalize your loan and drive away the same day. Can I manage my loan online? Yes! You can check your balance, make payments, and set up recurring payments online through our Loan Payment Portal. You can also make payments and view your other Vibrant accounts through Vibrant Online Banking. Can I finance both new and used vehicles? Absolutely — financing is available for both new and pre-owned vehicles. Are the loan terms flexible? Yes. Terms vary based on vehicle age, mileage, loan amount to vehicle value and your credit history. Where can I find a participating dealer?

Yes — but becoming a member is easy. When you finance through a participating dealer, anyone can join. As part of the loan process, the dealer makes a $5 donation on your behalf to the Be the Good Foundation, so you automatically become a member while supporting community programs. Early Pay Off What products may be affected when I pay off my loan early? If any of the following products were financed into your vehicle loan, they may be eligible for a refund of unused premiums upon early payoff: GAP Insurance Credit Life/Disability Insurance Vehicle Service Contracts (VSCs) These products were sold through the dealership at the time of your vehicle purchase and financed as part of your loan. Contact us if you are unsure which products are attached to your account. What will Vibrant Credit Union handle for me? Vibrant Credit Union will promptly initiate cancellation on your behalf for GAP Insurance and Credit Life/Disability Insurance . You do not need to contact those providers directly. If you have questions about the status of a refund for these products, please contact our Loan Operations Department at (800) 323-5109 or by email at indirectcancellations@vibrantcu.org . Do I need to do anything myself? Yes, for Vehicle Service Contracts (VSCs) you will need to contact the provider directly to request cancellation and any applicable refund. We recommend reaching out as soon as possible, as refund eligibility may be subject to deadlines set by each provider. Before you call, have the following ready: Your loan account number Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) Loan payoff confirmation Please note : Cancellation of these products is entirely optional. If your Vehicle Service Contract still provides value for your vehicle, you are under no obligation to cancel. The decision to retain or cancel coverage is a personal one based on your individual needs and circumstances. We encourage you to review your coverage terms before making any changes. Where will my refund go? For products cancelled by Vibrant Credit Union, any refund received will be credited to your eligible Vibrant account. If you do not have an active account with us at the time the refund is received, a check will be mailed to the address on file. For products you cancel directly with the provider, the refund destination will be determined by the provider's process. How long does the refund process take? Vibrant Credit Union will initiate cancellations promptly upon receiving your payoff confirmation. The timeline for receiving a refund depends on the individual product provider's processing schedule, which is outside of our control.
