Shared Branching

What is the CO-OP Shared Branch Network?

While most credit unions serve local communities, and therefore, don’t have much presence beyond their specific locales, many belong to an expansive system of shared branches and ATMs.

Known as CO-OP Shared Branching, a division of CO-OP Financial services, more than 5,300 “live teller” branches are available throughout the United States. CO-OP Shared Branching enables you to transact business with your regular credit union at the branches of other participating credit unions — something you’ll never do at competing bank branches. If your credit union participates, you also have access through 1,800 self-service kiosks, many of which can be found within select 7-Eleven locations.

Credit union members who are between institutions, or are traveling and nowhere near their home branch, can conveniently visit another credit union’s location without worry of being charged out-of-network fees. They may perform a number of account-related transactions. Is your credit union close to home but far from your office? There may be a Shared Branch near work.
