AZ Credit Union Week 2024 | OneAZ Credit Union

Get More for Your Money

Banking better means banking with your local credit union. As not-for-profit financial institutions, credit unions prioritize people before profits.

Better rates, fewer fees: our earnings benefit our members, not stockholders or other outside interests.
Investing in the community: Arizona’s credit unions support hundreds of locally-based nonprofits doing good work in your community.
Personalized service – we get to know our members and design our accounts and services with you in mind.
Local doesn’t mean limited: your money is easy for you to access with local branches, convenient mobile apps, and nationwide branch & ATM networks.¹
Creating jobs & growing the local economy: Arizona’s credit unions employee thousands of team members who live and shop in the communities we serve.

¹Branch and ATM access varies by institution. Contact your credit union for details.
