💡 What “Financial Wellness” Really Means in 2025

Financial wellness isn’t just about having a savings account. It’s about confidence, clarity, and control over your money — knowing where it’s going and how it’s growing.

In 2025, members across Northwest Indiana and Illinois are focusing on:

  • Reducing financial stress

  • Setting clear savings goals

  • Making smarter use of digital banking tools

  • Balancing short-term needs with long-term growth

And with today’s technology, many of these goals are more achievable than ever.

 

🛠️ Banking Tools That Make a Real Difference

1. Automated Savings Tools

Small changes make a big impact. Many members now use round-up features that automatically transfer spare change into savings every time they make a purchase. It’s an effortless way to grow your balance — without thinking twice.

2. High-Yield Savings & CDs for Big Goals

Whether you’re saving for a down payment, education, or retirement, a high-yield CD or savings account can help your money grow faster while staying secure. At Tech Credit Union, we offer competitive rates that keep your savings working hard right here at home.

3. Budgeting & Spending Insights

Mobile banking tools make it easy to track expenses, set budget limits, and receive alerts when you’re close to your goals. Staying on top of spending helps members avoid unnecessary fees and stay focused on what matters most.

4. Checking That Supports Your Lifestyle

Modern checking accounts aren’t just for payments — they’re the hub of your financial wellness. With features like automatic bill pay, account alerts, and cash-back or high-yield options, your checking account can help simplify your financial life while adding real value.
