Benefits of Membership
Your Credit Union Membership entitles you to many premium services available only to our select groups. Since Peoples Credit Union is a not-for-profit cooperative it operates solely to serve its members.

What is it that makes your credit union so special? Credit unions are committed to providing our members with favorable rates on loans and savings, low fees, personal attention and convenience.
Credit unions are not-for-profit financial cooperatives. We return all excess income to our members in the form of better rates and lower fees. We offer the same financial products as other financial institutions, but we do it as a service, not as a source of income. That's why you'll notice that our fees are significantly lower.
