Personal Accounts

Banking should fit your life, not the other way around. Whether you need a simple checking account, a savings account to grow your money, or something more specialized, we have options built around how you actually want to bank.

Every account comes with the features you’d expect, including competitive rates and easy access to your funds, plus something you might not expect from a bank: people who know your name and pick up the phone.

Explore our accounts below and find the one that fits. At Ciera Bank, we’re here to help you make the most of your money, one relationship at a time.

Individual Retirement Account (IRA)

An Individual Retirement Account (IRA) provides a means of savings for retirement no matter what stage of life you’re in. Ciera Bank offers both Traditional and Roth IRAs to help meet your retirement goals.

 

Certificate of Deposit (CD)

CDs are an FDIC-insured, low-risk savings option that allows you to earn interest over a particular time period. To help you achieve your savings goals, we offer competitive-rate CDs with maturities that range from 90 days to five years.

 

Health Savings Account (HSA)

A Health Savings Account is an FDIC-insured, tax-exempt account you set up to pay for or reimburse certain medical expenses you incur, such as office visits, prescriptions, vision, and dental services. Some features of an HSA are:

  • You can claim a tax deduction for contributions you make to your HSA

  • Contributions remain in your account until you use them

  • The interest or other earnings on the assets in the account are tax free

  • Distributions may be tax-free if you pay qualified medical expenses

  • Your HSA is portable; that means it stays with you if you change employers or leave the work force

 

IntraFi

The IntraFi Network is a shared network linking financial institutions of all sizes, allowing depositors the ability to place money at multiple banks, ensuring maximum FDIC insurance coverage all through one single banking relationship. When a member institution places your deposit into the network, the deposits are divided into amounts under the FDIC insurance maximum of $250,000 and then placed into multiple FDIC insured banks.

The IntraFi Network allows you to utilize your existing Ciera Bank relationship for all accounting openings and management. This eliminates the hassle of having to open accounts at different banks or in different insurable capacities, as well as the need to manually consolidate account statements and interest disbursements on a recurring basis. This reduces administrative burdens, especially during tax and financial reporting seasons, and frees up valuable time.

So you can skip the extra paperwork while enjoying the peace of mind associated with access to this level of FDIC insurance coverage.
