4 Ways to Make the Most of Your Credit Union Membership.
 

February in Ohio often means two things: navigating the lingering winter chill and looking for ways to show a little love, not just to others, but to your wallet, too! At Unity Catholic FCU, we believe that being a member is about more than just having a place to store your money. It’s about being part of a community where your financial well-being comes first. Since you are a member-owner, our success is your success.

If you are only using your account for basic checking or savings, you might be missing out on some of the best perks of membership. Here are four easy ways to maximize the value you get from banking with us this year:

  • Take Advantage of Lower Loan Rates: Unlike big banks that need to maximize profits for shareholders, we return our profits to you in the form of better rates. Whether you are looking to refinance high-interest debt from the holidays or you're in the market for a new car this spring, check our rates first.

  • Utilize the CO-OP Shared Branching Network: Did you know your membership travels with you? Through the CO-OP Shared Branching network, you have access to thousands of credit union branches and surcharge-free ATMs nationwide. You can bank locally here in Ohio or while on vacation just as easily as if you were standing in our lobby.

  • Explore Free Financial Education: We want you to feel confident about your money. Take advantage of our free financial counseling and educational resources. Whether you are planning for retirement, saving for a first home, or just trying to build a better budget for 2026, we have the tools to guide you.

  • Go Digital for Convenience: Life gets busy, and you can’t always make it to a branch. Make sure you have downloaded the Unity Catholic mobile app. From remote check deposits to setting up bill pay, our digital tools are designed to save you time and give you total control over your finances 24/7.

We love seeing our members thrive. By taking advantage of these benefits, you aren’t just banking; you’re building a stronger financial future for yourself and your family. If you have questions about a loan, need help setting up the app, or just want to chat about your financial goals, stop by your local branch or give us a call. Let’s make 2026 your best financial year yet!
