A simple savings account generally pays the owner a set amount of stated interest on his or her deposits based upon an particular annual rate. Money market savings accounts typically require higher balances and limit monthly transactions, but generally do pay a higher interest rate. Both kinds of accounts are guaranteed in the United States by the FDIC and NCUA.

by taking in the deposits of their members (customers). They then lend most of that money out again at a higher rate of interest than they pay the member for the deposit. This process is very similar to typical banking establishments, but the difference lies in the insulating effect almost all credit unions have by virtue of their membership requirements. Whether it be a form of employment in a region, membership in a labor or trade union, or (as is becoming common) residence in a metropolitan area, credit unions are often not nearly so exposed to shocks as global banking establishments. Deposits are ensured by the NCUA, which functions in a very similar manner as the FDIC.
