Folsom, Calif. – (May 7, 2026) – Now through Tuesday, June 30, 2026, new qualifying SAFE Credit Union business banking members can receive a "Welcome" Introductory 3.30% APY[i] for three months on a new Business Money Market account.
To be eligible for the introductory APY, members must open and maintain a minimum balance of $2,000 in a new Business Money Market account for three months with SAFE Credit Union. The introductory APY is applied to balances between $2,000 and $25,000.
“We work with businesses every day, and we know that every dollar counts for them,” says SAFE Credit Union Chief Operating Officer Tiffani Vargas.
SAFE, a Sacramento area-based not-for-profit financial institution with $4.4 billion in assets, caters to its business members operating within the 13 counties it serves – Sacramento, Placer, Yolo, El Dorado, Sutter, Butte, Nevada, Solano, San Joaquin, Contra Costa, Yuba, Amador, and Alameda counties.
The welcome offer provides business banking members with additional flexibility and control, Vargas says. “With our Business Money Market account, we offer small business owners a way to grow and gain flexible access to their funds – meaning they can deposit savings and withdraw funds when they need to in order to maintain, transition, and grow their business,” she says.
In addition to the introductory APY, SAFE is offering a $500 bonus[ii] to qualifying business checking members who also open a new SAFE Visa® Business Credit Card by Oct. 31, 2026.
