What is Shared Branching?

Members can not only use Options Credit Union main branch location, but also those of other shared branching credit unions to conduct basic teller transactions. Whether you are traveling for business or pleasure, have parents or kids out-of-state, or you just simply prefer doing your business closer to home or work, shared branching brings the convenience to you.

Providing the best access and service is important for our members, and partnering in this nationwide cooperative allows us to do that. CO-OP offers member the ability to find any of the 5,000 + locations by calling 1-888-SITE-CO-OP, by texting your zip code to 91989, or visiting CO-OPCreditUnions.org online.

Having access to CO-OP Shared Branching means that you have more direct access to branches than most traditional bank customers do.
