About Peninsula
About Peninsula Credit Union
We listen, we serve, we educate, we care…always
That’s our mission statement, and we live by it here at Peninsula. We’re conscious of our roots, mindful of our responsibilities, and energized by our mission to help our members navigate an increasingly complex financial world.
Founded in and dedicated to the Olympic Peninsula
Peninsula Credit Union is one of the nation’s first community chartered member-owned credit unions. On September 19, 1935, the Rainier Pulp and Paper Company, Shelton, Washington, Federal Credit Union was created. Since that time other name changes have taken place as the charter has expanded. Today, Peninsula Credit Union serves more than 20,000 members. Our name has changed, but our mission has not—we still want to serve people who need it.
The Credit Union Difference
Credit Unions are good for you.
Bank almost anywhere
In addition to local branches and online and mobile banking, credit unions share thousands of branches and surcharge-free ATMs, meaning you have anytime access to your accounts.
Not-for-profit
Because we’re not-for-profit, our earnings are returned to you, our members, in the form of better rates, lower fees and free ATMs.
Caring, personal service
Credit unions are ranked as having the best service experience when compared to banks, and Peninsula is certainly no exception. We pride ourselves on our caring member service.
Credit Unions are also good for your local community.
Member-owned
Credit unions are member-owned and governed. We understand what you’re going through, and are dedicated to looking out for all of our members.
Dedicated to the health of our community
We invest in our community through a variety of activities, including high school financial education, community financial education, sponsorship of Relay for Life, and Peninsula Education Grants.
Committed to helping our members succeed
Credit unions are dedicated to the financial well-being of their members, and Peninsula provides each of our members with the tools and resources to make a fresh start and thrive.
