Pay Yourself First CD

Enhance Your Savings with Every Loan Payment.

 

Turn your regular loan payments into an extraordinary saving opportunity with GCU's Pay Yourself First: Loan Match CD. This innovative program is ideal for members with existing loans, those considering new loans, and anyone who previously might not have fully grasped its benefits. It’s a unique chance to save while you spend.

How It Works:

  • Rate Matching: Your Pay Yourself First certificate of deposit (CD) earns interest at an annual percentage yield (APY) equal to your loan's annual percentage rate (APR), potentially boosting your savings more than usual.
  • Automatic Savings: Each loan payment you make, whether monthly, biweekly, or weekly, boosts your CD balance. It’s effortless – your savings grow as you repay your loan.
  • Flexible Savings Cap: Choose to save up to 10% of each loan payment, regardless of your payment schedule. This flexibility allows you to tailor your savings to your personal budget and goals.
