The perks of an AFTRA-SAG Federal Credit Union membership are reserved for a very special group: professionals in the business of entertaining.

The biggest benefit is that your membership gives you an ownership interest in the Credit Union. Unlike at a traditional banking institution, your financial goals come first and our goals are to help you succeed. As a not-for-profit enterprise, any profits we earn are returned to you in the form of better rates, better services and better products.

 
Join Us

As the largest credit union in the nation exclusively serving entertainment industry professionals – both in front of and behind the camera – and their families, we’re run and supported by more than 35,000 people who share a strong common bond. And once you join, you'll enjoy the perks of membership for life.
Eligibility

In order to become a member of AFTRA-SAG Federal Credit Union, you must fulfill two requirements:

  1. Meet eligibility guidelines
  2. Open a Primary Share account with at least $50 and a one-time $5 membership fee

Your Primary Share account is exactly what it sounds like: it represents your 'share' of ownership in the credit union. It is a savings account that pays dividends. So long as you keep a minimum balance of $50 in that account, you will remain a member. AFTRA-SAG FCU is a nonprofit organization. We are not driven by stockholders to make more profit. Instead we give that back to our members in the form of lower loan rates, higher savings yields, and superior service.

You are eligible to join if you answer 'yes' to any of the following questions:

  • Are you a member, employee or pensioner of one of our Select Employment Groups?
  • Do you have an immediate family member or household member who is eligible for membership in AFTRA-SAG FCU?

'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. Note: Even if your immediate family member or household member is not currently a member of AFTRA-SAG FCU, you are still eligible to join.
