Access to innovative and flexible financial products

Credit unions are at the cutting edge of banking technology, responding to our members' financial needs. Credit unions were first to offer automated teller machines (ATMs) in 1976, customer loans, daily interest savings, and flexible mortgage payments. Banks follow where we lead.

You get preferential treatment

Every member at UCU gets the same friendly, knowledgeable and warm service as well as access to a full line of fine-tuned financial services.

To help your community

Every year UCU donates and/or sponsors many youth, cultural, church groups, charitable, and community-based organizations. Our employees volunteer their time and talents to a wide range of community initiatives.

That is why 26,000 people have already chosen UCU to be home for all their financial needs.
