1st Choice Credit Union

1st Choice Credit Union is a member-owned, community-focused financial institution based in Atlanta, Georgia. With a history dating back to 1946, we offer a comprehensive range of financial products and services designed to meet the needs of individuals and businesses. Our commitment to serving our members with integrity, respect, and empathy is at the core of everything we do. As a federally insured state-chartered credit union under the NCUA, we ensure that our members’ deposits are safe and secure. Our recent certification as a Community Development Financial Institution (CDFI) by the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s CDFI Fund allows us to support low-income communities through grants and other federal resources.

As a credit union, our structure differs from traditional banks. We operate under a cooperative model where earnings are returned to members through benefits like free ATMs, better rates, and lower fees. Governed democratically, every member has a voice in how the credit union is run. By banking with us, you support local growth and development, as we are deeply rooted in the Atlanta community. With over 200 Credit Union network locations for Shared Banking Services, we make banking accessible and convenient.
