Savings
Get in the habit of saving for future expenses and purchases. We offer a variety of accounts to help you tailor your short-term savings plan and a payroll allotment service to put it on autopilot.

Regular Share Account

When you become a member of Jersey Shore Federal Credit Union, a regular share account will be opened with your deposit of $25. This primary savings account is your "share" in the credit union and is the ideal place for your emergency fund and short-term savings goals. Dividends are compounded and credited monthly.

Holiday & Vacation Accounts

Do you need help saving some cash for the holidays or for your next vacation? We've got accounts for that! Our Holiday and Vacation Accounts help you set a little aside all year long with Direct Deposit and Payroll Allotment. Dividends are compounded and credited monthly, just like your Regular Savings Account, and the funds are held safely for your intended purpose.

Holiday Savings

Contribute to your Holiday Savings Account year round, as often or as little as you'd like. The account matures in October of each year and funds are automatically dispersed to your Checking or Regular Savings Account.† The account automatically renews each year for your convenience so you can start saving for the following year.

Vacation Savings

Customize your Vacation Savings Account to have funds ready to go when you are. Set aside your play money year round and we'll disperse the funds to your Checking or Savings Account in January, April, July or October — your choice!† We'll renew your account automatically so you can start planning next year's trip.

Secondary Savings Account

Looking for a regular savings account for a special purpose? Want to be able to access funds whenever you need? Just open a Secondary Savings Account.
