What is CO-OP Financial Services?
Written by Carly Simon-GersukCredit unions understand customers demand easy access to their accounts wherever they live, work or travel. And while we all LOVE mobile and online banking – for some services, it’s better to go into a branch or find an ATM.
As a result, credit unions have combined resources and formed the CO-OP Financial Services. With the CO-OP network, credit union members can access accounts and conducts business nationwide at any credit union location within the shared branch network.
CO-OP Financial Services was started in 1981 in California with 20 ATMs. Today, they’ve expanded to include a whopping 30,000+ surcharge-free ATMs in all 50 states and 10 countries, and 6,000 branches across the U.S. That makes them larger than any bank’s ATM and branch network.
Shared branch and ATM services allow you to:
- Make fee-free deposits and withdrawals
- Transfer between accounts
- Make loan payments
- Check account balances
- And almost anything else you’d do at your regular credit union
While credit unions are smaller, community-centered institutions, the use of shared branching and atms enables customers to conduct business where they need it, when they need it.
