Shared branching means you can access your money at thousands of locations in the U.S. or abroad – with no fees. Whether traveling for work or play, it’s a great idea to locate the branch closest to your hotel before you leave home.

Knowing where “your” credit union is will give you peace of mind for fast access to your credit union accounts. However, if you’ve got multiple stops or are planning a road trip, there are several easy ways to find a Shared Branch location wherever you are. Here’s how to find a Shared Branch:

1.     Online: Use the interactive branch locator at www.co-opsharedbranch.org.

2.     By phone: Members can always use the phone locator service by calling 1-800-919- 2872. This speech enabled automated service, available to both English and Spanish speaking members, prompts callers to search for a convenient branch by zip code or street and provides them with the details needed to contact or visit the shared branch location. It even gives the caller the ability to obtain detailed driving directions, making the trip to the service center easy.

3.     iPhone App: Find a Shared Branch easily with the free “Find Branch” app for iPhone or for Android. The app will locate one of the thousands of credit unions that have opened their doors as Shared Branch locations.

Shared Branching provides peace of mind and freedom when you’re away from home. Just bring your account number and a photo ID and you can access your accounts while you’re away from your home branch.
