Lighthouse Premium Savings FAQs

The dividend rate you earn on your Premium Savings account is based on the balance you have in each tier. For instance, with a balance of $20,000, your funds are earning dividends at the $0.01-500, $500.01-15,000.00, and the $15,000.01-100,000.00 tiers.

Yes, and automatic recurring transfers are often a great way to build your savings without thinking about it. To set up a recurring transfer, log in to Digital Banking and choose Transfers & Payments from the top navigation. Next, select Make a Transfer and complete the fields on the next page to give us the details of your transfer. The Frequency dropdown menu lets you choose how often you’d like us to make this transfer, and the next fields that appear will allow you to set up the duration for your recurring transfer.

You have 24/7 access to your accounts via Digital Banking and the Lighthouse Mobile App where you can view your balances and make transfers/payments. Additionally, you have access to Lighthouse branches, a nationwide network of 30k+ surcharge free ATMs, and 5,900 Co-Op Network shared branch locations across the country.

Supporting our communities and the people they serve is central to everything we do here at Lighthouse. We make this happen largely through the Lighthouse Credit Union Foundation. One of the ways to continue to grow the Foundation is through these contributions. Each month, we’ll match a percentage of members’ total Lighthouse Premium Savings balances (on us, not on you) to the Lighthouse Credit Union Foundation.
