Taking care of your business needs with a full suite of banking services

We’re a local business too, so we get it. Whatever your size, we can help you find the right mix of banking services to fit your needs—all with the personalized service and attention of a member-owned credit union. Need dedicated savings accounts for different funds? We can do that. You can pay your vendors online and make deposits remotely. We have two types of checking accounts, so you won’t pay for features you don’t need. We even have services tailored to the needs of specific local businesses like yours.

Business Savings

Our Business Share Savings account has no fees and pays competitive dividend rates. And with a Business Secondary Savings account, you can manage different funds separately. Both accounts offer convenient online banking and remote deposits.

For even better dividend rates and the same access to funds, consider a Business Money Market account. Or if you don’t need immediate access to your funds, earn even more on long-term savings with Service Credit Union certificates.
