Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between Savings and Membership?

Savings is the money you deposit into your account with us. We offer various savings plans to help you protect against financial shocks and save for specific goals, like holidays or home improvements.

Membership is about being part of our credit union. When you save with us, you become an active member, which provides security and protection for your savings. As a member, you get access to all our services, including the ability to borrow.

Do I have to be a member to start saving or apply for a loan?

Yes, you must be a member to use any of our services. The good news is that when you start saving with us, you automatically become a member of the credit union.
