What’s Saven Financial?

Saven is an online financial platform that offers smart savers consistently competitive GIC rates, utilizing simple and easy-to-use digital technology. Saven is a division of FirstOntario Credit Union, one of the largest credit unions in Ontario, which has been serving its members since 1939.

What’s a GIC?

A GIC (guaranteed investment certificate) is a type of savings investment where the money you deposit grows over time due to a fixed interest rate that’s guaranteed. This means there’s no fluctuation.

Which account should I use for buying a GIC?

You can buy a GIC through a non-registered account, an RRSP, or a TFSA — it all depends on your goals. Non-registered GICs offer flexibility, TFSA GICs let your money grow tax-free, and RRSP GICs help you save for retirement.

What’s the minimum investment amount?

Our GICs require a minimum investment of $1,000.

Can I redeem my GIC before the term ends?

Our GICs are non-redeemable, which means you are unable to cash out a GIC early. You must wait until your term ends to redeem your money. However, we give two business days from opening a GIC to change or cancel that GIC.
