We also offer a list of resources about credit unions in each state, along with any other perks that are provided in those states. Credit union membership offers endless privileges and perks to their members. Those perks will change based on the state and the credit union.

We offer all this information to our readers because we think it’s important for our readers to be knowledgeable about credit union membership before joining. Credit union membership is fantastic, but it may not be for everyone. Some people enjoy having access to their bank no matter where they travel too. Others don’t enjoy the impersonal nature that comes with big banks, so they choose a credit union. Make your choice based on what works for you. But if you are considering a credit union, we want you to be well informed.

Credit unions are members-only financial institutions. Check to see if you meet the eligibility requirements, or what you need to do to meet the requirements of your preferred institution. Some credit unions are restricted to individuals who are employed at certain places. Some are limited to geographic location. Member cooperatives like credit unions can set whatever parameters they want for selecting their membership.
