How It Works
Treat it just like you would your regular savings account by making deposits through the mail, payroll deduction, automatic transfer, direct deposit, transfers through Online Banking, or over the phone. Keeping in mind that since this savings account is specially designed to help you save for the holidays at the end of the year, you are not allowed to make withdrawals during the year (but you can close the account with no early closure fee).
Around November 1st, your funds are then transferred to your membership Prize Savings account to access for your holiday spending!
