Making your financial life easier.
Earthmover Credit Union provides various supplementary services to members, including notary services for document certification, secure wire transfers for money movement, and expert financial counseling. We also offer safe deposit boxes, direct deposit options, and comprehensive debit and credit card support to meet diverse financial needs.
When you need important documents officially certified, Earthmover Credit Union offers convenient notary services for our members. A notary public acts as an impartial witness to the signing of important documents, verifying the identity of the signers and ensuring they sign without duress or intimidation. This service is crucial for many legal and financial transactions, providing an added layer of authenticity and legal validity.
Our trained staff can assist with a variety of documents requiring notarization, such as affidavits, real estate deeds, power of attorney forms, and certain loan documents. We understand the importance of accuracy and legal compliance in these processes. Members can simply visit any Earthmover Credit Union branch during business hours to access this valuable service, often at no charge or for a minimal fee, depending on the complexity and number of documents.
By providing accessible notary services, Earthmover Credit Union helps members avoid the inconvenience and potential cost of seeking external notaries. This is part of our commitment to offering a complete suite of services that support your financial and personal administrative needs, all within the trusted environment of your credit union.
For situations requiring the rapid and secure movement of funds, Earthmover Credit Union offers reliable wire transfer services. Whether you need to send money to a family member across the country or make an urgent international payment, wire transfers provide a quick and efficient method for transmitting funds directly from one financial institution to another. This service is particularly useful for large transactions or time-sensitive payments where traditional checks or electronic transfers might not be fast enough.
Each wire transfer is processed with strict security protocols to protect your funds and personal information. Our staff will guide you through the required details, such as the recipient's bank name, account number, and SWIFT/BIC code for international transfers, ensuring accuracy and peace of mind. For more information on how wire transfers work, you can consult resources like Wikipedia's explanation of wire transfers.
Navigating personal finance can be complex, which is why Earthmover Credit Union provides access to financial counseling services. Our goal is to empower members with the knowledge and tools to make informed financial decisions and achieve their monetary aspirations. This service goes beyond basic account management, offering personalized guidance on budgeting, debt management, credit building, and saving strategies.
"Understanding your financial situation is the first step toward building a secure future. Our counselors are here to provide clear, actionable advice tailored to your unique circumstances."
Our financial counselors are dedicated to helping you develop a realistic financial plan. They can assist with creating a budget that works for your income and expenses, explore options for reducing debt, and provide insights into improving your credit score. This guidance is designed to help you gain control over your finances and work towards long-term stability and growth. We believe that everyone deserves access to expert financial advice, and these services are a testament to our commitment to member well-being.
For documents and items that are difficult or impossible to replace, Earthmover Credit Union offers secure safe deposit boxes. These private, locked compartments within our vault provide a secure location to store important papers, irreplaceable family heirlooms, precious metals, and other valuable items that you want to protect from theft, fire, or other damage. While home safes offer some protection, a safe deposit box at Earthmover Credit Union provides a higher level of security, backed by our robust physical security measures and surveillance systems.
We offer various box sizes to accommodate different needs, and access is available during regular branch hours. This service is an essential offering for members looking for an extra layer of protection for their irreplaceable valuables, complementing their financial security with physical asset protection.
Simplify your financial life with Earthmover Credit Union's direct deposit and payroll deduction services. Direct deposit allows your paycheck, Social Security benefits, pension, or other recurring payments to be electronically transferred directly into your Earthmover Credit Union account. This eliminates the need for paper checks, reduces trips to the branch, and ensures your funds are available faster and more reliably. It's a secure, efficient, and environmentally friendly way to manage your incoming funds.
Payroll deduction takes this convenience a step further by allowing you to automatically allocate a portion of your paycheck to different Earthmover Credit Union accounts. For example, you can set up a direct deduction to your savings account, a special purpose club account, or even make loan payments automatically. This 'set it and forget it' approach is an excellent way to build savings consistently, pay down debt without extra effort, or contribute to specific financial goals without having to remember to transfer funds manually.
Both direct deposit and payroll deduction are designed to make managing your money easier and more effective. They help members save time, avoid potential delays or loss of paper checks, and foster good financial habits by automating regular contributions to savings or debt repayment. Speak with an Earthmover Credit Union representative to set up these convenient services today.

Our debit cards are linked directly to your checking account, providing an easy way to make purchases and withdraw cash from ATMs without carrying large amounts of cash. They come with features like fraud monitoring and instant transaction alerts to protect your funds.
Our credit card options are tailored to meet various financial needs, offering competitive rates and rewards programs. We prioritize your security with features such as EMV chip technology, zero liability for unauthorized purchases, and the ability to set up travel notifications to prevent interruptions when you're away from home. Managing your cards is made simple through our online banking platform, where you can view transactions, make payments, and report lost or stolen cards.
Beyond the transactional aspects, Earthmover Credit Union's card services include resources for understanding your credit score and managing credit responsibly. We also offer support for disputing transactions and provide clear information on card terms and conditions. Our goal is to ensure your debit and credit cards are not just payment tools, but also secure and effective instruments for managing your personal finances.
