Why Is It Different?
-
Not-for-profit financial institution owned and operated by its members. A traditional bank is typically owned by stockholders, not the bank’s customers.
-
Accounts federally insured up to $250,000 by the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA)
-
Typically better rates on savings and loans compared to the local “for profit” banks.
-
Provide members with superior member service
-
Usually charge lower account fees

Better Member Service Examples:
-
A member who typically does not overdraft their checking account has an overdraft - we call the member to verify the item is authorized and to provide an opportunity to deposit funds to cover the overdraft.
-
Loan requests are typically approved within an hour or by the morning of the next business day.
-
Typically no waiting when you call or visit the office: Our member service objective is to immediately help our members.
