Credit unions generally provide financial benefits to members through lower loan rates, higher savings rates, and fewer fees than banking institutions.
America’s Credit Unions estimates that ACU of Texas provided $5,923,116 in direct financial benefits to its 44,215 members during the twelve months ending March 20241.
These benefits are equivalent to $134 per member or $281 per member household2.
The per-member and per-household member benefits delivered by ACU of Texas are substantial. But, these benefits are reported as averages. Mathematically, that means the total benefits you provide are divided across all members (or all member households) - even those who conduct very little financial business with the credit union.
For example, financing a $30,000 new automobile for 60 months at ACU of Texas will save members an average -$43 per year in interest expense compared to what they would pay at a banking institution in the state. That’s approximately -$215 in savings over 5 years.
Further, loyal members3 - those who use the credit union extensively - often receive total financial benefits that are much greater than the average.
America's Credit Unions estimates that ACU of Texas provided loyal high-use member households $755 in direct financial benefits during the twelve month period.
