We are committed to positively impacting our members - like you!

In 2021, we decided to better serve our member-owners by removing our previous Relationship Fee and establishing a new, lower $5 Maintenance Fee based on your investment in the cooperative. The old fee was assessed to help cover the cost of servicing member accounts. But, we felt we could serve you better by removing this fee and establishing a lower fee based on your investment in the cooperative.

We help our members play an active role in their finances, encouraging them to save and borrow money with us. It’s key to Listerhill’s sustainability and creates value that is ultimately returned to our member-owners, like you! To learn more about the Maintenance Fee, click on the questions below.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Do you need to be a Listerhill Credit Union member to apply for a Money Market Account?

    Yes, you do need to be a Listerhill Credit Union member to apply for a Money Market Account. To qualify for membership with Listerhill, you must meet one of the following requirements:

    • You must live in the states of Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi, Florida, or Tennessee.
    • Depending on your individual eligibility requirements, we may require membership in an approved association at no cost to you.
    • You can also qualify for membership by being a family member of a current or potential Listerhill member.
  • How does a tiered dividend rate structure work?

    Money market accounts typically offer tiered dividend rate structures. That means account balances above certain thresholds earn a higher rate. For example, Listerhill  Credit Union offers progressively higher APYs on amounts above $9,999, $49,999, and 99,999. It’s important to realize that only the portion of your deposit above this threshold will earn the higher rate, while the amount below will continue to earn dividends at the lower rate.

  • Where is the best place to open a money market account?

    Credit unions offer more generous dividends on average than other banking institutions, as well as fewer fees and charges. Credit Unions also offer more personal service to help you set up and manage your money market account.

  • What do you need to open a money market account?

    In order to open a Listerhill Credit Union Money Market Account, you need to be a member of Listerhill Credit Union. You’ll also need:

    • Proof of identity, such as drivers license, state ID card, or passport
    • An opening deposit of at least $15 to cover the low balance fee
  • How do credit union money market accounts work?

    Credit Union Money Market Accounts allow you to earn more money in dividend payments by offering progressively higher rates for amounts above $9,999, $49,999, and $99,999. Only the portion above the threshold earns the higher dividend rates. Because credit unions are not-for-profit financial cooperatives owned by and run on behalf of their members, dividend rates are higher on average than those offered by commercial bank accounts.
