The perks of AFTRA-SAG membership are reserved for a very special group: professionals in the business of news and entertainment – whether in front of the camera and microphone or behind the scenes.

Membership makes you an owner and your financial goals come first. Our goal is to help you succeed. Unlike for-profit banks, we are not driven by stockholders. We give any profits back to members in the form of lower loan rates, higher savings yields, and superior service. Join now!

Eligibility

To take advantage of Membership in AFTRA-SAG Federal Credit Union, you must be one of the following:

'Immediate family member' means any spouse or significant other, child, sibling, parent, grandparent, grandchild; and also includes stepparents, stepchildren, stepsiblings and adoptive relationships. 'Household member' means persons living in the same residence and maintaining the same economic unit, such as a roommate. 

Keep in mind that even if your immediate family or household member who makes you eligible is not currently a member of the Credit Union, you are still able to join!

AFTRA-SAG Federal Credit Union is the largest credit union in the nation exclusively serving the unique financial needs of entertainment and news industry professionals and their families. Our members share a strong common bond so rest assured that, once a member, you're in good company.

The USA Patriot Act requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who opens an account. You will be asked for your name, address, date of birth, and other information that will allow us to identify you. We will also ask to see your driver's license or other identifying government issued documents (State Issued Non-Driver ID, Military ID, Military Dependent ID, Passport, Permanent Resident Card). We only request information required by law and will use the information only for purposes of complying with the law. If we are unable to verify your identity, an account will not be opened.
