Most credit unions have membership requirements that don’t make it possible for anyone to join — and that disqualifies them from our rankings.
But Melrose has a unique open charter that allows all U.S. residents to join, regardless of where they live or work, and it only costs $1 to sign up.
Compare these returns with the best CD rates from scores of other banks in our extensive database.
