A Smart Way To Build Credit

Establishing or repairing your credit? A share secured loan is one of the most reliable tools out there. It is easy to qualify for, and every on?time payment builds the kind of track record lenders like to see, all while your savings keeps right on earning.

What Is a Share-Secured Loan?

A share-secured loan lets you borrow against the money already in your Transport CU savings account. Your savings stay in place and keep earning dividends while the balance you borrow against is held as collateral. Because the loan is backed by your own funds, it carries a lower rate than an unsecured loan and is easier to qualify for.

How much can I borrow?

Up to 100% of your Savings Account balance, or the balance of the certificate you pledge.

Does my savings still earn while it secures the loan?

Yes. Your pledged savings or certificate stays in your account and keeps earning the entire time.

Can I pay off my loan early?

Yes. There are no early repayment penalties, so you can pay ahead or pay it off whenever you like.

Do I need to be a member?

No! You do not need to be a member to apply. Anyone can complete an application online. If your loan is approved, don't worry, we'll help you complete your Transport Credit Union membership quickly and easily before your loan is finalized and funded.
