Banking that actually knows your name
friendly approach to modern finance
We combine all the traditional friendliness of a credit union with the modern banking facilities you demand, such as instant, real-time online access to your account and our convenient mobile app which lets you manage your finances while on the move.
We may work with figures all day, but at CLCU you’ll always be more than a number. When you join us, you’ll become part of a community to lean on for help. Croí Laighean Credit Union is not-for-profit, so any surplus is channelled into providing members with better products and services, loan rebates, or dividends. We also help our local community flourish through sponsorship initiatives that support schools, organisations, and clubs in your area.
