Business Member Benefits

As a financial cooperative, Royal Credit Union returns profits to our Members in the form of better rates, fewer or no fees, and more free account services. Because our Members are our owners, we work for them, not outside shareholders. This means that we make our decisions based on the best interests of our Members, not their impact to any bottom line number. It’s a unique way of providing financial services that comes as a surprise to many who have switched to Royal.

Royal’s Purpose & Values

Royal’s core purpose is to create a positive impact in the lives we touch. We strive to do good for everyone we work with. We also have core values that further reinforce our commitment to our Members and team members: make a difference; make it easy; do the right thing; be caring; take ownership; and be friendly, nice, and respectful.

Royal also has a history of supporting our communities. Our nonprofit RCU Foundation has awarded more than $4 million in charitable grants to benefit the arts, education, and health since 2012. We’ve also helped thousands of businesses in our local communities throughout the years. Most recently, we assisted over 1,300 businesses by distributing over $52 million in Small Business Administration Paycheck Protection Program loans during the COVID-19 pandemic. Join Royal and you’ll find a long-term financial partner!
