Transparent rates for informed decisions.
UW Credit Union provides current interest rates for a variety of financial products.

At UW Credit Union, we offer competitive interest rates across a wide spectrum of loan products designed to meet diverse financial needs. Whether you're planning a major purchase or consolidating debt, understanding our current loan rates is the first step. Our rates are regularly reviewed to ensure they reflect market conditions while providing value to our members. We aim to provide transparency so you can make informed borrowing decisions.
Our personal loan rates are structured to provide accessible financing for various purposes, from unexpected expenses to home improvements. For vehicle financing, our auto loan rates apply to both new and used cars, offering flexible terms to fit your budget. We also provide rates for recreational vehicles, including motorcycles, boats, and RVs, making it easier to finance your adventures. Factors like creditworthiness and loan term will influence the specific rate you qualify for.
UW Credit Union understands that a home is one of the most significant investments you'll make. Our mortgage rates are designed to be competitive, whether you're buying your first home, refinancing an existing loan, or utilizing the equity in your home. We offer various mortgage products, including fixed-rate and adjustable-rate options, each with distinct rate structures.
Our mortgage specialists are available to discuss the current rates and help you understand how different loan types and terms can impact your overall cost of borrowing. We encourage you to compare our offerings to ensure you secure a mortgage that aligns with your long-term financial goals.
Growing your money effectively is a key financial goal, and UW Credit Union offers attractive interest rates on our savings and checking accounts. While checking accounts primarily focus on transactional convenience, many of our options also accrue interest, providing a small return on your daily balances. Savings accounts are designed specifically for growth, with rates structured to reward consistent deposits and larger balances.
The Federal Reserve's monetary policy decisions significantly influence the interest rates offered on deposit accounts. Understanding these broader economic factors can help you anticipate rate trends.
Our money market accounts often provide a higher interest rate than standard savings accounts, typically for members who maintain higher balances. These accounts combine the liquidity of a checking account with the earning potential of a savings account. We regularly update our rates to remain competitive within the banking industry, helping your deposits work harder for you. You can find more information about how interest rates are set by central banks at Federal Reserve.
For members looking for secure, long-term savings options with guaranteed returns, UW Credit Union offers competitive rates on Certificates of Deposit (CDs) and Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs). CDs allow you to lock in an interest rate for a specific term, providing predictable earnings. Our CD rates vary based on the term length, with longer terms generally offering higher rates.
Investing in CDs and IRAs through UW Credit Union allows you to benefit from stable growth, knowing your principal is protected and your interest rate is fixed for the duration of your term. These accounts are ideal for those seeking a low-risk way to build wealth over time.
UW Credit Union supports local businesses with a range of financial products, including business loans and deposit accounts, all offered with transparent and competitive interest rates. Our business loan rates are tailored to the specific needs of your company, whether you're seeking financing for expansion, equipment purchases, or working capital. We understand that every business is unique, and our lending specialists work to structure loans with rates and terms that fit your operational model.
For business deposits, we provide attractive rates on checking, savings, and money market accounts designed to help your company manage its cash flow efficiently while earning a return. Our business money market accounts, for instance, offer tiered interest rates, meaning larger balances can earn higher returns. We also offer business Certificates of Deposit (CDs) with competitive rates for businesses looking to invest surplus funds for a fixed period. Our commitment is to provide financial solutions that contribute to the success and stability of your business.
The interest rates offered by UW Credit Union are influenced by a complex interplay of economic factors and market conditions. Key drivers include the Federal Reserve's federal funds rate, inflation expectations, and the overall demand for credit. When the Federal Reserve adjusts its benchmark rate, it often has a ripple effect on rates across the financial industry, including those for loans and deposits. We continuously monitor these indicators to ensure our rates remain competitive and fair for our members.
For borrowing products like loans and mortgages, your individual creditworthiness plays a significant role in determining the specific rate you receive. A strong credit history generally correlates with lower interest rates, as it indicates a lower risk to the lender. Other factors, such as the loan term (e.g., 15-year vs. 30-year mortgage) and the loan-to-value ratio for secured loans, also affect the final rate. For deposit products, rates are often tiered, meaning higher balances may earn a better annual percentage yield (APY). We aim to provide clear explanations of how these factors apply to each product, allowing you to make well-informed financial decisions with UW Credit Union.
