We're a full service financial institution owned and operated by the more than 46,000 members of the Stanford Community, including Stanford University, Stanford Hospital, Lucile Packard Children's Hospital and Stanford Linear Accelerator Center.
What's so great about being owned by our members? As an SFCU owner, you're in charge. That means lower interest rates on loans and low or no-fee accounts!
In 1959 a group of Stanford employees created the Stanford Federal Credit Union to serve their banking needs. Today, we've grown to over 46,000 members and over $800 million in assets, and the quality of our expansive line of financial products and services is unmatched in the industry. We serve the faculty, staff, students, alumni, and volunteers of Stanford University (naturally), but we also serve over a 100 local companies that are part of the Stanford Community. That's a lot of companies, true, but we've still got room for you!
To top it off, Stanford FCU was the first institution to offer online banking, and it continues to be committed to offering innovative technology to its members. The credit union is also focused on enhancing financial lives through education and counseling. Our truly visionary leadership continues to be provided by our member-elected Board of Directors, who selflessly serves without pay to help oversee the credit union's operations.
