What makes us different from a bank? Part of it is our not-for-profit, cooperative structure. Financial Partners Credit Union is owned by our members, not Wall Street, so we’re committed to doing what’s best for you, rather than the bottom line.

Since our humble beginnings, we're over $2.2 billion in assets, with 93,000 members, and branches across California, from South San Francisco to San Diego. But one thing hasn’t changed since eight aviation workers pooled $900 in 1937 to launch Financial Partners: our focus on saving money, making money, and saving time for our members.
