When it comes to choosing a high-yield savings account (HYSA), many people are drawn in by flashy introductory offers—those tempting high rates that disappear after a few months. While these offers can be appealing at first glance, it’s important to think about what happens after the introductory period ends.

What our members say
It was the first financial institution I visited when I moved to Fairfield. I came from Pennsylvania and was a credit union member there so I was already familiar with how they work. GECU didn't disappoint me. I would recommend them to anyone.

I have been a member of General Electric Credit Union since 1979. I have bought many cars, a couple of motorcycles and taken who knows how many loans for all the things that life has thrown my way. I also have a credit card, and checking account at the credit union. Through all of life's ups and downs, the folks at General Electric Credit union have been there to help. Always exceeding my expectations, and I can't say that about many other places. Thanks for always being there!!

GECU is one of the best financial institutions in the country, period. They offer great service at low cost. Whether it is with their everyday checking or saving accounts or their mortgage loan program. They respond quickly to meet their member's expectations.

I think General Electric Credit Union is a great financial institution that has been great to me, and I would recommend them to my family and friends. I have been with GECU for eight years now and will continue using them for my banking and car loans. Its a great financial institution.

I have been a member of the credit union since 1963. They have helped me raise two kids, buy a house, cars, and take a vacation each year. Knowing GECU is there to help me if I need them is truly a blessing.

I got an auto loan and I don’t have perfect credit but they got me an interest rate that I’m very happy with! I will always come here and recommend for any auto loan.
