Why Credit Unions Are Different

When it comes to managing your finances, you have options. While traditional banks are often the go-to choice, credit unions like Alliant offer a unique and often more beneficial alternative. Let's explore what makes credit unions stand out from the crowd.

Member-Owned Structure

Unlike banks, which are owned by shareholders, credit unions are owned by their members. This means that when you join Alliant, you become a part-owner. This structure allows credit unions to prioritize member benefits over gain maximization.

Better Rates and Lower Fees

Because credit unions are not-for-gain organizations, they can often offer higher interest rates on savings accounts and lower rates on loans. At Alliant, we pride ourselves on providing competitive rates that help our members' money work harder for them.

Personalized Service

Credit unions are known for their exceptional customer service. At Alliant, we know our members by name, not just account numbers. This personal touch extends to our online services too, ensuring you always have a friendly, helpful experience whether you're visiting a branch or using Alliant online.

Community Focus

Credit unions are deeply rooted in their communities. Alliant is committed to supporting local initiatives and providing financial education to our members. When you bank with us, you're contributing to the well-being of your community.

Innovative Technology

Contrary to popular belief, credit unions like Alliant offer cutting-edge technology. Our online and mobile banking platforms provide all the convenience of big banks, with the added benefit of personalized service and member-focused features.

Conclusion

Choosing a credit union like Alliant means opting for a financial institution that puts your interests first. With our member-owned structure, competitive rates, personalized service, community focus, and innovative technology, we offer a banking experience that's truly different.
