Budgeting, Spending, & Savings Goals

What is Budgeting & Spending?

Budgeting and Spending lets you see where your money is being spent by automatically categorizing purchases from your CFCU accounts, as well as accounts from other financial institutions you may connect. See categories like gas, groceries, travel, entertainment and more to help you monitor and manage your own spending habits.

What kind of information will I see about my spending?

Your transactions on your CFCU accounts and accounts from other financials that you connect will be automatically categorized based on the merchant type. You'll see general merchandise, entertainment, gas stations, restaurants/dining, groceries and more. You can modify the categories and what accounts are included. A Spending Analysis graph will help you see how your spending compares month to month.

Can I connect accounts from outside Community First?

Yes! You can connect accounts for ‘account aggregation’, which allows you to see a full financial picture of your balances in one place, with CFCU’s Digital Banking and our Financial Wellness tools. You will also be able to see individual transactions within those accounts.

How can the Financial Health Checkup tool help me manage my money better?

The Financial Health Checkup tool will assess your balances, borrowing, spending and savings to create a financial wellness score along with tips and suggestions to improve your financial wellness.

What are Savings Goals?

Savings Goals make it easy to track your savings progress. After you set a goal, you’ll be able to see your progress on your Dashboard. You can even set up regular transfers. You can have more than one goal active at the same time.

How do I set up a Savings Goal?

There are two steps for setting up your Savings Goal.
1.) Create your goal. Click ‘Create a Savings Goal’ in the displayed box (widget) on your Dashboard. Next:

Select the existing account where you will save and choose what you are saving for
Create a description for your goal
Set the balance goal you’d like to reach and your target date
Select the “Create Savings Goal” button. Your goal will now appear on your Dashboard

2.) Then, you have the option to set up transfers to help you reach your goal.

What is Cash Flow?

The cash flow widget provides a quick snapshot of the past 30 days of money in and out of your accounts. When you click on it, you’ll also be able to see a month-over-month view of all or any individual accounts you have with CFCU.

Credit Monitoring/SavvyMoney

What is Credit Score Monitoring by SavvyMoney?

Credit Score Monitoring helps you stay on top of your credit. You get your latest credit score and report and an understanding of key factors that impact your score. It also helps you keep an eye out for identity theft with daily monitoring and email notifications if there are any big changes detected, such as a new account being opened, a change in address or employment, a delinquency has been reported, or an inquiry has been made. Credit Score Monitoring is powered by SavvyMoney.

Will accessing SavvyMoney Credit Score ‘ping’ my credit and potentially lower my credit score?

No. Credit Score Monitoring by SavvyMoney uses a 'soft inquiry', which does not affect your credit score. In contrast, lenders use ‘hard inquiries’ to make decisions when you apply for loans

Is there a fee?

No. Credit Score Monitoring by SavvyMoney is provided at no cost as a benefit of your member-ownership with Community First.

How often is my credit score updated?

Your credit score will be automatically updated each month. You may also click “refresh score” as frequently as every day from the Credit Score tile on the Digital Banking dashboard.

Do I have to sign up?

Yes, the initial score you’ll see is a National Average. Clicking on “See My Score” will enroll you to see your own credit score. After a few minutes, the score you see on your dashboard will update from the National Average to yours.

Is this the same credit score you use for lending decisions?

Not exactly, but it is very similar and a good indicator of your overall credit health. There are three major credit-reporting bureaus - Equifax, Experian and Transunion - and two scoring models - FICO or VantageScore - that determine credit scores. They are similar in the results they provide. Credit Monitoring by SavvyMoney currently displays the VantageScore from Transunion. We use a similar score from another bureau along with many other considerations when it comes to lending.

Can I view my credit report in Credit Score Monitoring?

Yes, you can view your credit report. SavvyMoney will also provide guidance on what is helping and hurting your score, so you can make adjustments. If you see something that is wrong or inaccurate, you can even start the dispute process.

Can my joint account holder see their credit score too?

Credit Score Monitoring pulls credit score information based on the primary account holder – the person you are logged in as. If a joint owner would like to see their own score, logging into Digital Banking with their own login credentials will allow them to enroll.

Quick Balance

What is the Quick Balance widget?

The Quick Balance widget offers the convenience of being able to check your account balances without having to launch the full mobile app and log in.

Once set up, the widget will continue to show your account’s available balance. It will refresh the balance roughly every 15 minutes, but the balance and time stamp will only update if the available balance changed.
