Issuing and redeeming savings bonds is an easy way for your financial institution to provide additional service to your customers and earn a handling fee from the U.S. Treasury. Both the Treasury Retail Securities Sites and the U.S. Treasury’s Bureau of the Public Debt offer an array of free resources that make participation in the Savings Bond Program rewarding for your customers and you.
As a qualified issuing agent, your institution is authorized to process your customers’ Series EE and I savings bond purchases. In addition to providing a valuable community service, you will receive payments from the U.S. Treasury for processing savings bond orders.
For more information about savings bonds for financial institutions, read Savings Bonds: An easy addition to your financial portfolio (PDF), a brochure that describes the processing options and fees associated with issuing and paying U.S. Savings Bonds.
To become an issuing or paying agent, visit Savings Bonds for Financial Institutions setup or contact your servicing Treasury Retail Securities Site.
The EZ Clear program is used to process redeemed U.S Savings Bonds and Notes.
