Convenient access

Use any of the 55,000+ surcharge free ATMs in our network. If you also have a Global Credit Union checking account, you can use your Visa® Debit Card for both your checking and savings accounts.

As part of the CO-OP Shared Branch Network® you can visit a branch to access your accounts at thousands of locations across the U.S.

Shared branch locations offer a range of services that may include:

  • Deposits, withdrawals, and transfers.
  • Loan payments.
  • Visa cash advances, check withdrawals, and money orders.
  • Notary services.

Overdraft protection

Want the flexibility to go over your balance if you need to? Ask for overdraft protection2 to take funds from your Money Market when needed.

If you need to use your overdraft protection, there is one low fee charged at the end of the day—rather than for each individual transaction.

Even more benefits
