Direct Deposit
Direct deposit is a convenient method of depositing your paycheck and federal or retirement benefits into your Firelands Federal Credit Union account. You will have instant access to your funds on payday via your ATM/debit card, online banking, and mobile banking.
Save yourself time and money. Use direct deposit to have your check deposited electronically. To obtain a direct deposit form, please contact your payroll/benefits department.
Payroll Deduction
What an easy way to save money! With payroll deduction, you have the ability to deduct the amount you determine into any of your accounts.
You can also use this method to direct a portion of your pay into IRA's, other family members’ accounts (i.e. a Kids’ Club account) or even make a recurring Firelands Federal Credit Union loan payment. If you would like to initiate or change a current payroll deduction, please contact us for more information.
Money Orders
Money orders are available to members for $2.00 each. Each Money Order can be made out for a maximum amount of $1,000.
Notary Public
Notary services are available at no charge to Firelands FCU members.
Wire Transfers
Firelands FCU offers both domestic and international outgoing wire transfers and also accepts both domestic and international incoming wire transfers. The fees for this service are extremely competitive. Wire transfer instructions can be found here.
Gift Cards
Visa® Gift Cards are available for purchase at any branch for $3.00 each. The Visa Gift Card is accepted most everywhere Visa Debit/Credit is accepted. Unlike cash or checks, if the Visa Gift Card is lost or stolen, it can be replaced quickly for the unspent amount.
Safe Deposit Boxes & Personal Boxes
A safe deposit box or personal box is an ideal place to store personal property that is important or expensive and difficult or impossible to replace. We can provide you with an opportunity to store these items and provide you with a sense of financial and personal security. However, as with all safe deposit and personal boxes, they are not insured by the credit union or NCUA. You can purchase this insurance through your personal agent.
You might consider including birth certificates, adoption papers, deeds to property, mortgage notes, marriage licenses and divorce decrees, military discharge records, Social Security cards, automobile titles, and important computer disks in your safe deposit or personal box. You shouldn’t keep anything in a safe deposit or personal box that you might need in an emergency, in case we are closed for the night, the weekend or a holiday.

Savings Bonds
U.S. Savings Bonds are a safe, easy way to save money and a solid addition to your investment portfolio. Whether you're saving for a new home, car, vacation, education, retirement, or for a rainy day, U.S. Savings Bonds can help you reach your goals with safety, market-based yields, and tax benefits. The money invested in savings bonds directly helps finance our country's borrowing needs. The interest earned on savings bonds is exempt from all state and local income taxes. Federal income taxes on the interest are deferred until the bonds reach final maturity, or you redeem them, whichever is first.
Firelands FCU allows redemption of savings bonds, but does not sell them. For more information on Savings Bonds you can visit www.savingsbonds.gov or call 1-800-4US-BOND for recorded rate information.
