SUMA FCU allows its members to Save Big, Support Locally, Bank Near & Far

SUMA FCU historically provides the highest possible savings rates and the lowest possible loan rates - and has eliminated annoying fees (unlike those big banks*) - in the interest of helping you along your financial path because, as a member, you are also an owner of this credit union.

Plus, by banking with SUMA FCU, you are directly supporting local churches as well as local Ukrainian youth groups and cultural institutions - allowing them to continue making an important difference while enriching all our lives. Your membership has allowed SUMA FCU to donate millions of dollars since our inception to these beloved local institutions.

Once joining you can visit our local branches or use our award-winning desktop and mobile banking applications safely from your home or on the road, anywhere in the world. Transfer funds and make payments or deposits quickly and securely. Abundant no-fee ATMs, our low-interest and high-reward credit/debit cards, and eWallets make cash access frictionless.

*We also actively protect your privacy and will never sell your information to third parties.

Once a member, you can also pass along the Savings, the Benefits and the Privileges of membership to your friends, neighbors, colleagues, and family members. They will thank you for it for years to come.
