A Word About Our Rates

When you borrow money at JCU, you’re probably going to pay less. When you save money here, you’re probably going to earn more than you would at most other financial institutions. Most other financial institutions are in business to make money. Lots of money. And, they do it by charging higher rates and fees if they loan you money; and, paying you less interest on your savings.

How can we do this and still keep our doors open? We charge you exactly what we need to keep the doors open and not a dime more. We’re not profit-driven; we’re mission-driven. Our mission is to give you access to affordable, flexible financial products that make your life easier. All while treating you exactly how we’d like to be treated: like a valued, trusted neighbor.
