Automate Your Savings

How easy is it to start building your savings? Super easy!

Whether you have a goal in mind, or just want to make it a habit, the services below can help you automate the savings process while still being in complete control of your money.

Step One: Determine How Much Should You Save

A good starting point is to make a budget. What are your monthly earnings, and what’s left over when you subtract your monthly expenses? It could be a lot or a little, though even a relatively small amount can really add up.

Step Two: Set Up Automated Savings

Transfers via Online Banking
As a Greater Nevada member, you have access to free online and mobile banking. This not only helps you easily view your account balances, it also enables you to transfer funds. You can use eBranch to set up automated transfers from your checking to your savings, as well as change the amount or frequency if needed. Ready to get started?

Direct Deposits
Another way to start saving automatically is by taking a certain amount from your paycheck and putting it into your savings account through Direct Deposit.

Download the direct deposit form to provide to your employer.

Christmas Club
With a Greater Nevada Christmas Club savings account you can put away extra money all year long and then access those funds on November 1—just in time for the holidays.

Visit the Christmas Club page to get started.
