With more than 3.5 million members spread throughout metropolitan, rural and regional areas, credit unions are now the preferred choice for nearly one in four adults.

The growth in popularity of credit unions has been steadily increasing. The nation’s 140 credit unions now have more members than three of the largest four banks.

Better service...

Happy customers. That’s what credit union members are. Much happier than customers from most of the other financial service providers in Australia.

Unlike other financial institutions, as mutuals our customers are owners. That’s why 90%* of credit union customers are satisfied or very satisfied with the products & services they receive. So much so, most would recommend their credit union to friends or colleagues.

Fairer fees...

No Fees. That’s fair! Over two thirds of credit union members pay no fees at all, and on average credit union members pay less than customers of our competitors.

Credit unions also offer competitive loan rates and attractive savings rates. Credit union members can also carry out their financial transactions safe in the knowledge that credit unions are subject to the same rules, regulations and legal standards as the big banks.

Community focus...

Commitment to members. Commitment to community. There are 140 credit unions operating throughout the country finding practical ways to serve their communities and making sure that 3.5 million Australians have access to suitable banking and financial services - wherever they live.

Credit unions actively support their communities through sponsorship & fundraising initiatives - from local sports teams, to charitable donations, financial literacy programs & low interest loan schemes.
