“Competent, efficient, friendly, and sincerely kind! Refreshing and rare in today's banking world where too often you wait in long line to do your business with someone unpleasant and not having a good day (at best) or someone with a phony smile trying to sell you more stuff etc. Great staff at this branch especially! Hats off to this crew!” – Fredrick

Helpful Terms to Know

Routing numbers are nine-digit numbers that are used to identify your specific bank or credit union. The numbers were adopted by the banking industry in 1910 to make transactions quicker and more efficient. With each bank having one specific number assigned to it, the chances of miscommunication are reduced.

You may need to know it for filing taxes or setting up direct deposit.

Here are Liberty Savings Bank’s Routing numbers:

  • Accounts opened in Florida: 063191914
  • Accounts opened in Ohio or online: 242272324

Liberty Savings Bank is a proud member of the FDIC. Not every bank that applies is accepted.

Our FDIC membership gives all of our customers extra insurance protection for their funds at Liberty Savings Bank.

The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) is an independent agency created by Congress to maintain stability and public confidence in the nation's financial system. To accomplish this mission, the FDIC insures deposits; examines and supervises financial institutions for safety, soundness, and consumer protection; makes large and complex financial institutions resolvable; and manages receiverships.

A certificate of deposit (CD) is an account that holds a fixed amount of money for a fixed period of time, such as six months, one year, or five years, and in exchange, the issuing bank pays interest. At the end of the term, when you cash in or redeem your CD, you receive the money you originally invested plus any interest.

 

Check out Liberty’s Rate Watcher page for a handy comparison of high-yield CD products.

The annual percentage yield (APY) is the real rate of return earned on a CD, Checking Account, or Savings Account, taking into account the effect of compounding interest.

Here is a link to a calculator where you can estimate the APY for your accounts based on your rate

A checking account is used for the frequent and immediate financial needs of the account owner. Access may be in a variety of ways, such as cash withdrawals, use of debit cards, checks, and electronic transfers. A checking account may also provide interest on your balance.

People deposit funds in savings account for a variety of reasons, including a safe place to hold their cash. Almost all savings accounts earn compound interest over time (Liberty's interest is compounded daily). However, a savings account has a limited number of withdrawals, a lack of check and linked debit card facilities, limited transfer options, and the inability to be overdrawn.
