The MySavings account is an inverted savings program offered to members 21 years old or younger with account balances of up to $1,000 will earn a rate of 6.77% (7.00% APY). What is an inverted savings account? In a traditional savings account, the higher the balance, the higher the rate of return. However, in an inverted savings account, the opposite holds true: the lowest balance tier receives the greatest yield.

Instead, take advantage of CFCU's Direct Deposit service and save time by having your entire paycheck, less the usual deductions, automatically deposited into your Chevron Federal Credit Union account.

IMPORTANT: Instead of just your member number, you must use your 14-digit CFCU account number (found in the MICR line of your CFCU check) to authorize electronic debits or credits to your account. Please click here to find out how to establish your 14-digit CFCU account number.
Direct Deposit Benefits

How Direct Deposit Works
On your payday, your employer will provide you with a pay stub, and that same day, the amount of your paycheck, less the usual deductions, will appear on your CFCU member statement. If you ever need to verify a deposit, simply call our 24-hour Telephone Access Service or log onto PC Access. It's simple and easy.
