Benefits of personal loans and lines of credit

With a UCU personal loan or line of credit, you'll be on your way to financial freedom. A personal loan or line of credit offers the convenience of having funds readily available for various needs, whether it's covering the cost of home renovations or a vacation, helping build an emergency fund, or consolidating existing debt.

  • Pay interest only on what you use. Pay a low APR* on your monthly balance -- and if you don't use your personal line of credit, it won't cost you a dime.
  • There are no restrictions on using your personal loan or line of credit.
  • Easy access to your money with digital banking.
  • Competitive variable and fixed APR.
  • Up to 0.50% APR discount on personal loans -- 0.25% when you sign up for auto pay1 and 0.25% for repeat borrowers.2
  • Repayment term options are available on personal loans.
