Power Up and Boost Your Financial Savings
Not familiar with “reverse-tier”? Basically, this means the account gives you the best rate when your balance is small. As your balance grows, the interest rate drops:
• $0 – $1,000 earns 5.50% APY*
• $1,001 – $2,500 earns 1.50% APY*
• $2,501 – $10,000 earns 0.50% APY*
• $10,001 or more earns 0.05% APY*
That makes Power Savings a smart choice for an emergency fund, a vacation stash or any other short-term savings goal. In addition, if you link the account to your debit card, purchases are rounded up to the next dollar, and the spare change is deposited into your savings account.
If you’re just starting your savings journey (or want a simple “set it and forget it” savings habit), Power Savings is a low-effort way to make your money earn a bit more.
Open your account online, schedule an appointment or call 303.422.6221.
*APY=Annual Percentage Yield. Limit one Power Savings Account per member. The interest rate is applied to the average daily balance and is paid at tier rates on the balances within each tier. Dividends are compounded and credited monthly based on the average daily balance present in the Power Savings Account. Member eligibility is required. The APY for the Power Savings Account is current as of 01/01/26. Rates and terms are subject to change at any time without notice. Fees may reduce earnings on the account.
