How to Join The County Federal Credit Union
Credit unions differ from banks in that they restrict membership based on a shared common bond, or the credit union’s “field of membership”.
That means in order to qualify for this bonus (or any offer from a credit union), you'll first need to meet one of CFCU's membership requirements:
- Live, work, worship in communities throughout Aroostook, Penobscot, and Piscataquis Counties
- Be an immediate family member of an existing CFCU member
Keep in mind that nearly all credit unions have a "once a member, always a member" policy, so once you're in, the above restrictions no longer apply.
