Mid American offers savings accounts for every purpose. There's no monthly service fee whenever a minimum balance of just $100 is maintained in any combination of deposit accounts (Preferred Youth accounts don’t have a monthly fee and no minimum balance is required). Dividends are calculated daily and are paid quarterly, except where noted otherwise.
If you work for one of Mid American's employee groups, you may use payroll deduction to make automatic deposits into your account, or another family member's account. You can also make automatic transfers into most savings accounts from another account.
Basic Membership Savings
As a member with a Basic Savings account, you can use it for any purpose you have in mind. This account offers three free withdrawals per month. Nationwide ATM access is available on this account and this account can be used for Overdraft Protection.
Boost Your Savings
With Boost Your Savings, every time you use your debit card, your purchase is rounded up to the next dollar amount. The difference is then automatically deposited into your savings account. Paying $1.49 for a cup of coffee will move 51 cents into savings. Over time, your "spare change" can really add up! Learn More
Christmas Savings
Plan ahead for holiday expenses with a Christmas Savings account. Start your account at anytime, and then make penalty-free withdrawals from October 1 to December 31. ATM access is not available on this account and it cannot be used for Overdraft Protection.
Payroll Plus Savings
This exclusive savings plan is designed to encourage consistent, longer term savings through payroll deduction, for members who work at a Mid American payroll group or have direct deposit of their Social Security checks. A maintained minimum balance of $500 earns one of Mid American's highest dividend rates. This is a restricted access account, with one free withdrawal monthly. Non-payroll deduction deposits up to $500 may be made only during the first 90 days the account is open. ATM access is not available on this account and it cannot be used for Overdraft Protection.

Regular deposits to a Vacation Savings account can help you prepare for a special getaway. This account offers three free withdrawals per month. ATM access is not available on this account, but it can be used for Overdraft Protection.
Preferred Youth Savings
Children and young adults through age 24 can take advantage of this special, no-fee savings account designed to meet their needs. ATM access is not available on this account and it cannot be used for Overdraft Protection. Members ages 5 to 13 will automatically be enrolled in Mid American's Young Savers Club that includes a free birthday gift and entry into monthly prize contests with entries based on deposits.
Money Market Account and Premiere Money Market
Our Money Market accounts offer high yields and flexibility. Three free withdrawals per month, and you can also write up to three checks per month. $1000 minimum to open, and a monthly service fee of 10.00 will be charged if your account balance falls below $1000. Dividends on the Money Market account are calculated daily as on other savings accounts, but are paid monthly.
