Best of all, it's free and you'll never have to worry about a late payment or search for a stamp again. Contact the merchant to get started today!



Start saving one step at a time
If you consider saving for retirement or a new home, it might seem overwhelming to consider the entire amount you need to save. But, if you change your thinking and only focus on saving little by little, it may seem like a more manageable task.

For example, you may think you can only save $10 a month, and it may not seem worth it. The truth is, if you save $10 each month, you'll probably realize it doesn't have much of an impact on your budget, and you may find you can save $20 or even $30 a month.

The truth is, any amount you can save is a step in the right direction and once it becomes a habit you won't remember a time when you didn't save!

Coming Soon! Enjoy easier access to your home equity line of credit
If you have a SEFCU home equity line of credit, soon you can access cash even easier! Instead of writing checks, you'll be able to use an Equity Access Card to make purchases anywhere Visa is accepted. And, there's no minimum transaction limit, so you can buy something as inexpensive as a paintbrush, right up to your approved loan amount (with a maximum daily purchase limit of $5,000).
