About CreditUnionAdvisor
Meet the team committed to helping American families make informed financial decisions.
Our Story
How we began our mission to simplify credit union selection for families across the United States.
CreditUnionAdvisor was founded in 2020 by a group of financial professionals who recognized a significant gap in the market: while there were numerous resources comparing traditional banks, very few focused on credit unions despite their growing popularity among American families.
Our founders had personally experienced the benefits of credit union membership but also recognized the confusion many consumers faced when trying to select the right credit union for their specific needs. With thousands of credit unions across the United States, each offering different benefits, rates, and membership requirements, the decision-making process was often overwhelming.
We set out to create a comprehensive platform that would make comparing credit unions simple and accessible, with a particular focus on the needs of everyday families. Today, our team of financial experts, data analysts, and user experience specialists work together to provide unbiased, accurate information about credit unions across the country, with special attention to institutions like STCU, KFCU, Family Trust FCU, Connexuscu, and Edfed.
