Free Service For CFCU Members
CFCU, as your credit union, has invested in a program which we feel can be helpful to you in managing your finances.
This tool can assist you with budgeting, planning, amortization and general questions you may have as it pertains to your money and everyday life. Accel is also an excellent program for helping your teen or college student understand finances.
There is no fee to you as member of CFCU. To access this service, you can link to Accel's web site from CFCU's home page under the "Quick Links" section, or call an Accel representative at 1-877-33-ACCEL (332-2235).
Shared Branches
Enjoy The Convenience
It doesn't matter that CFCU is not close to your office because you can make transactions on your CFCU account at shared branches throughout Michigan and nationwide! That's because we participate in two shared branching systems – Xtend and CU Service Centers.
Walk into any of these offices to make deposits, withdrawals, inquiries and more. All you need is your account number and a pictured ID. At this time, you are unable to apply for CFCU loans at these locations, but we provide you with the convenience of applying for your loan online, by phone and fax, or stop by the Credit Union office.
To find a location near you, click on the Xtend or CU Service Center links on the right side of our home page and follow the prompts. It's that easy!
Other services that provide convenient access to your account include the Debit MasterCard, It's Me 247 Home Banking, Surcharge-Free ATMs, and more. Ask for details.
