Learn About Us

A 90-Year Legacy of Service and Counting.

Community-driven and member-focused—making banking simple and financial lives better.

Serving the Greater Sacramento Area Since 1935

Our roots extend to 1935 when Sacramento County Employees' Credit Union opened in an abandoned church at 715 Seventh Street, sharing space with Southern Pacific Employees' Credit Union to reduce operating expenses. In the early 1970s, we purchased the property where our corporate office currently stands.

Throughout the decades, we've always been committed to members' financial well-being. Our membership base has grown steadily, and in the mid-1980s we changed our name to Sacramento Credit Union to reflect our service expansion beyond county employees.
