Ways to Save

At CUA, our team won’t simply tell you how much you should be saving. We understand the expenses of everyday life can add up to be less than ideal. When it comes to putting funds away for the future, it’s less about the number and more about having a plan. Whether your goals involve a dream vacation, a down payment, saving for your child’s education or being prepared for an emergency, CUA will help you get started by asking one simple question – how much can you save?
Together, we’ll talk about what’s workable within an everyday budget built for real life, before making a plan and celebrating milestones with you along the way.
Our Commitment to your Financial Health
In addition to providing flexible solutions, personalized service and quick answers when you need them most, our team is committed to being a champion of your financial health. According to the Financial Health Network, saving is a critical activity that enables you to be resilient and pursue opportunities over time.We want to help you save. If you are starting a new savings journey, we have a bonus offer for first-time savers. We’ll make the first deposit of $25 when you open your first mySavings or myTFSA account with an automatic deposit of $50 a month or more.
