I already have an RBFCU Classic Money Market. Can I switch it to an RBFCU Choice Money Market?
Yes. You may close your Classic Money Market account and open a Choice Money Market account. However, only one Choice Money Market is available per tax-reported owner. There is not a limit to the number of Classic Money Market accounts you can own. This account will not be available to businesses (EINs).

How many RBFCU Choice Money Market accounts can I open?
Only one Choice Money Market account, per tax-reported owner, may be opened.

What happens if my Money Market balance falls below $2,500?
You do not have to close your Money Market account; however, if your balance falls below $2,500, the account will automatically revert to the savings account rate at that time, by the end of the business day. The account name will remain an “RBFCU Money Market.”
If a transaction, payment or transfer presented electronically or over the phone to an external merchant causes your Available Balance to fall below the minimum requirement of $2500, the transaction will be rejected and returned unpaid. For complete details, please review our Truth in Savings Account Disclosures.
When your balance is brought back up to $2,500, you will earn the RBFCU Money Market rate again.

Can I open an RBFCU Choice Money Market for my business?
No. The Choice Money Market is not available for business accounts or any account using an EIN.

Is an RBFCU Money Market an investment product? Can it lose value?
An RBFCU Money Market account is not an investment product, nor will your funds be publicly traded. Your account is federally insured up to certain limits by the NCUA and will not lose value.

For blended tier rate accounts (RBFCU Choice Money Market), each tier of your total balance adds up to a blended Annual Percentage Yield (APY).

An RBFCU Choice Money Market account requires a minimum balance of $2,500. Earn the first tier on the entire balance up to $10,000 when the minimum balance is maintained.
