Deposit Services


Midale Credit Union Limited is responsive to its members' needs. Members of our credit union can benefit from many types of transaction services.


Chequing Account


Monthly statements with cancelled cheques are produced at month end at no cost to the member. We offer Operating Lines of Credit which can be attached to the chequing account. This would permit the account to be in an overdraft position until a deposit is made.

Interest on your Line of Credit is charged on the exact overdrawn balance for the number of days it is at that balance. If a Line of Credit is not used during the month, there is no charge.

If you do not have a Line of Credit, and you overdraw your account, there is a minimum charge of $5.


Maximizer Daily Interest Savings & Chequing


Maximize your earning power!
The Maximizer Daily Interest Chequing account makes your money work hard for you. You're able to watch your money grow--the Maximizer account pays interest on your daily balance. And the interest you earn is paid into your account every month.

Maximizer Performance
Maximizer benefits include the tiered interest savings account feature. The more you have on deposit, the more you earn. With the Maximizer account, there is no need to transfer funds between savings and chequing accounts--one account is all you need!

Maximum Convenience
With the Maximizer account, you can take advantage of the following payment options: Maximizer cheques, MasterCard Payment Card** and the Member Card Debit Card to access your account through automated teller machines (ATMs) to pay for goods and services at merchant locations.
And, to keep track of your transactions, you will receive a monthly statement of all your personal accounts, including the Maximizer account.

Plan 24

24 Hours a Day, 7 Days a Week!

Why let your money be lazy, when your credit union has a plan for putting it to work!
Our Plan 24 daily interest savings account keeps your money busy earning interest every 24 hours, every day of the week.

Earn Interest on Your Daily Balance
With Plan 24, interest is calculated every 24 hours on the balance in your account that day. Deposit as little or as much as you like, knowing that every penny actively earns interest as long as it stays in your account.

Enjoy Maximum Flexibility
With Plan 24, you'll always have access to ready cash for those short-term expenses that need immediate attention. Meanwhile, you'll continue to earn interest on the remaining funds! Plan 24 helps you focus on your long-term goals, while enabling you to take care of short-term expenses.

CUSave

balance required and the funds are not locked in. A premium rate is paid on balances over $5,000.00 and the regular

Headstart


You're Fast Off the Mark

When you open a credit union Headstart account, you're well on your way to gaining a real advantage...moneywise.

The money you receive through birthday and Christmas presents, graduation gifts, allowances and earnings can quickly disappear. Instead, it can remain close at hand and easy to access when you need it most, whether for clothes, entertainment or sale-priced items.

Money, like time, has to be managed. That's another advantage where a Headstart account comes into play. Use it to make money on your money, while keeping it safe.

Keep Your Eye on the Finish Line
Regular deposits to your Headstart account can quickly mushroom. Your accumulated savings will help you to achieve your long-range goals: college, travel, new sound system, mountain bike or windsurfer...whatever, it's your call.

Pitstops Along the Way
Along the way, you may need regular access to your money. Write cheques. Or make withdrawals from your account in person.

Many credit unions offer Automated Teller Machines (ATMs) which will accept your Member Card Debit Card. Use it to get easy access to your money 24 hours a day.
