Joining a credit union is a great way to make sure that your money stays local and supports your community. Many people who are on the fence about moving to a credit union think that they’ll miss out on perks that larger financial institutions offer, including access to free ATMs.
But did you know that you, as a credit union member, have access to more ATMs than any other financial institution? You also have access to almost more shared branch locations than one of the largest banks in the United States. Whether you’re traveling across the area or making a trip across the country, you’re never far away from a free way to access your money.
Read more below on how you can benefit from fee-free ATMs and shared branches.
Think of credit unions as a team. Instead of competing against each other to see who can make the most money, we work together to provide you with more savings solutions.
One of the most notable accomplishments from this “teamwork” philosophy is the CO-OP Shared Branch Network. You can use your Arsenal (or other credit union) debit card at more than 30,000 fee-free ATMs across the country, with 250+ of those being local to the St. Louis area.
What are typical ATM fees at non-network ATMs?
According to CNBC, ATM fees range from $2.50 to $5.00. In 2023, the average ATM fee hit an all-time high of $4.73.
ATM fees are often broken up into two separate charges: The fee the ATM operator charges you for using the device and what the financial institution your debit card is issued through charges.
To avoid these fees, always make sure you’re using a CO-OP Network ATM.
