Open an Account

To become a member, you must establish eligibility.

Once eligibility is determined, you must purchase at least one share by depositing $5 into a Share (savings) account. This $5 must remain in the account to keep it active and open. The deposit will earn dividends (interest) and can be withdrawn upon closing the account.

With the opening of a Share account, your membership is established and you become eligible for all the other services available from Ascend Federal Credit Union.

To open your account, simply print and complete the Account Application Card and the Service Application. You may bring these forms to a credit union financial center near you to make your deposit and activate your membership. You may also mail them with your opening deposit, but the forms must be notarized unless they are signed and witnessed by a credit union representative.

Important Notice:  To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each person who opens an account.

What this means for you:  When you open an account, we will ask for your name, address, date of birth and other information that will allow us to identify you. We may also ask to see your driver's license or other identifying documents.
