Becoming a member of a credit union, like CapEd Credit Union, is very simple! It starts with membership qualification, which is aligned with the interests of the community the credit union serves and their mission and vision. For CapEd, that's anyone within or in support of the education community, per our membership qualifications listed on this page. A qualifying member must then join the cooperative with a "Share Account," effectively their share in the credit union as a not-for-profit institution. By opening this account (at CapEd, a Share Savings), you enter credit union membership and, with that share established, then may open or request any account or service that the credit union offers its members. Let's Talk using the live chat in the bottom right corner of our website to start your membership at CapEd!
