Sound enticing? Let me tell you a little bit about PFCU. First, let's talk about what a credit union is and how we are different from a bank. Credit unions are not-for-profit organizations that exist to serve their members. Like banks, credit unions accept deposits, make loans and provide a wide array of other financial services.

As a member-owned and cooperative institution, a credit union provides a safe and sound place to save and borrow at reasonable rates with your best interest at heart.

We strive to help our members achieve their financial goals. Because we're not a bank, we don't drive up profits.

Instead, we focus on driving up member satisfaction through our, low loan rates, high deposit rates and low or no fee products and services.
