Ufirst Federal Credit Union

While we offer many of the same products and services as banks, we’re actually quite different. Simply put, a credit union is a financial institution created to serve a group of people connected by a common bond. Back in 1971, UFirst FCU started by serving SUNY Plattsburgh’s faculty and staff. That was our original common bond, but over time we’ve grown to serve the communities in Clinton, Essex, and Franklin Counties in New York, plus Essex and Grand Isle Counties in Vermont. As a not-for-profit, UFirst belongs to its members—not to distant shareholders. Any profits we make go right back to you through better rates, lower fees, and more services.
