At Provincial Credit Union, banking is about more than transactions; it’s about being part of a community. When you become a member, you join a financial institution that is owned by the people it serves and rooted in the communities it supports. Here is a look at what being a member of Provincial Credit Union involves:
Membership Means Ownership
When you open a share account, you are purchasing part of Provincial Credit Union, which means you have a say in how we operate. Every person, organization, or business that has an account with Provincial Credit Union is a member. At its core, being a member means you are a part-owner of your credit union and share in the profits and values of the credit union. Membership is open to Islanders who want to be part of a cooperative, community-focused financial institution.
Membership Means Community Impact
Beyond financial services, credit unions are deeply connected to their communities. Provincial Credit Union invests back into members’ communities through financial literacy initiatives, sponsorships, scholarships, and community volunteering. Rather than prioritizing profits for shareholders, earnings are reinvested to benefit members through investing in technology to serve members better, dividends, competitive service fees, or enhanced products and services.
Membership Means Personalized Service
Provincial Credit Union cares about helping members reach their financial goals. Credit unions’ member-first approach is what makes them different. Canadian Credit Unions have been recognized for Customer Service Excellence for over 20 consecutive years. Provincial Credit Union prioritizes making sure members have the products and services that work best for them and their financial needs.
