Brattleboro’s small town credit union with big bank services
About Us
Members 1st Credit Union is a trusted, not-for-profit cooperative financial institution, proudly owned and operated by our members. Our primary mission is to provide a secure and convenient environment for members to save money and access loans, including credit cards, at competitive rates. Embracing the spirit of “people helping people,” we distinguish ourselves from conventional financial institutions by returning income generated through our operations back to our members, either as dividends or by maintaining low loan rates and fees. Another distinction is that we do not base our loan rates on your credit scores. Contact us with and questions.
Our History
Established in 1957, Members 1st Credit Union began as a financial resource for the employees of Brattleboro Industries Company, which eventually evolved into Bookpress, Inc. In 1996, our board of directors adopted the name "Members 1st Credit Union," marking our commitment to thrift, community involvement, and family values.
