The Co-op Credit Union is chartered under the State of Minnesota and is a unique financial institution because

It is owned by the members it serves;
Its growth is limited by its field of membership.

A field of membership is a group of people sharing a common bond, whether it is employment, geographical location or membership in an organization.

Some employers have made it possible for their employee group to become members of the Co-op Credit Union by petitioning the State Commerce Department to be included in our field of membership through the select group rules in the state code.

If you meet the criteria for the field of membership...or if you are a member of the immediate family of someone who does... you can apply for membership by completing a membership application. A membership share account can be opened with as little as $5.00.
