A Primary Share represents your ownership of the credit union and is required to have a membership at Pelican. Only one primary share per member. Requirements start at a $10 minimum opening deposit ($5 membership fee + $5 minimum account balance). 

A Regular Share is an extra savings account that you can have multiples of in addition to your Primary Share to track all of your savings goals separately. The only requirement is that you must first have a Primary Share.

Benefits (the same for both accounts):

  • Up to 0.45% APY1
  • No monthly service fee
  • Tiered dividends paid quarterly on balances of $100.1 and above
  • 3 free withdrawals per month ($5 per withdrawal thereafter)
