12-month Share Certificate
A New Way to Save
A chance to win up to $5,000.¹
Would you like a chance to win prizes for saving your hard-earned money? With a Save to Win 12-month share certificate, for every $25 in account balance increase at month-end, you’ll be automatically entered in a monthly and quarterly prize drawing for a chance to win up to $5,000.1 Now, you get up to 100 entries per month!
The money you deposit in your Save to Win account is yours to keep along with the dividends earned.
With nothing to lose and everything to gain, it’s time to Save to Win.
How it Works:
- Open a Save to Win 12-month Share Certificate with a minimum deposit of $25.
- Make as many deposits as you like to your share certificate account during the 12 months. Every $25 balance increase earns you an entry into the drawings, up to 100 entries per month. For example, if your Save to Win account balance increases by:
- $50.00 at month end, you will have two (2) entries for the monthly prize drawing cycle.
- $1,590.00 at month end, you will have 63 entries for the monthly prize drawing cycle.
- $3,500.00 at month end, you will have 100 entries for the monthly prize drawing cycle.
- $75.00 at July month-end, $226.00 at August month-end, and $310.00 at September month-end, you will have 24 entries for the October quarterly prize drawing cycle.
- You may enroll in the Change it Up program to make automatic deposits from a SESLOC checking account. Learn more about Change it Up »
- Prizes are awarded monthly and quarterly, ranging from $25 to $5,000.
- Enjoy flexibility with the option to make one withdrawal during the 12-month period, with an early withdrawal penalty fee of $25. (You must maintain $25 in the account for it to stay open.)
- Everyone who opens an account is a “winner” because you get to watch your savings grow.

Why Save to Win?
Finding the motivation to save money can be difficult. Saving for emergencies or annual expenditures, such as vacations, taxes or holiday gifts, means denying immediate gratification for the promise of long-term goals. Share certificates give you a higher dividend rate than a regular share savings account. However, most require a large minimum deposit to get started and you can’t usually add funds after it’s been opened.
The Save to Win share certificate is different. This account helps you develop healthy savings habits in a fun way, with the added bonus of a chance to win prizes. Unlike the lottery, you keep the money you’re investing, plus earn generous dividends.
In addition to fostering the habit of saving, one of the best features is the ability to withdraw one time during the 12-month period (a $25 withdrawal penalty fee applies).
About Save to Win
The Save to Win program was developed by Commonwealth, CU Solutions Groups and the Michigan Credit Union League (MCUL). The pilot program launched with eight Michigan credit unions in 2009 and has since expanded to several states, including the most recent in California. SESLOC is proud to be among the first credit unions in California to offer Save to Win. The program is administered by CU Solutions Group, an affiliate of MCUL. To date, the program has awarded more than $3.1 million dollars in cash prizes and has helped credit union members save nearly $200 million nationwide.
