Share Savings Accounts

It only takes a Share Savings Account deposit of $35 to become a member of Solano First for life. After you open a Share Savings Account, you’ll receive dividends at a higher rate than you would at most other financial institutions. Our dividend rates are tiered, so the more you save, the more you’ll earn!
