Shared Branching

What is Shared Branching?

Shared Branching is a network of credit unions across the country that actually "share" their participating branches with each other. If you are a member of a participating credit union, you can use any other participating credit union's branch, identified by the Shared Branching "Swirl."

Where are Shared Branches?

Shared Branches are where YOU are!

There are thousands of Shared Branches across the United States, and in Ecuador, Germany, Italy, Japan, Korea, and Puerto Rico. They are convenient when you travel for business or vacation, or attend college away from home. They are also nearby when at work or in the car. Transactions conducted at Shared Branches are real-time transactions. This convenient service also allows you to access your credit union if you change jobs or move. There is always a Shared Branch nearby.

How does it work?

Just enter any credit union that displays the "Swirl." When you enter any Shared Branch, just provide the teller with:

1. State Highway Patrol Credit Union member.
2. You must have your credit union account number
3. A valid government-issued photo I.D., such as a state driver's license or U.S. passport

Is it safe?

Yes. Using a Shared Branch is just as safe and secure as using our credit union office.

How much does it cost?

Shared Branching is a free member service provided by State Highway Patrol FCU to its members.

Do I have to sign up?

No. If you are a member of a participating credit union, you can automatically use any Shared Branch, just like you use our credit union branch.

What type of transactions can I perform?

You can conduct the following types of transactions in a shared branching location:

1. Deposits
2. Withdrawals
3. Balance inquiries
4. Non-mortgage loan payments
5. Check cashing
