Membership

Become a Member

Our credit union is for people, not for profit!

We are a financial co-operative that provides savings and loan facilities for the benefit of our members. As a co-operative, we are owned and controlled by our members, each of whom has one vote (once aged 16 or over) - regardless of how much or how little they have saved.

Our Common Bond

Each credit union serves members drawn from a particular area or group - this is known as a common bond. For many credit unions that common bond is the area they live in. For others the common bond might be the occupation members work in, the employer they work for or, perhaps, members are drawn from a society or association. This common bond is what enables members to know and trust one another.

Our common bond is within the Ballinderry Bridge and Loup areas.
