“I love SFCU for many reasons but one thing that stands out for me is the fact that there are no international transaction fees! I have travelled all over the world — including Europe, India and Africa (see photo from my safari in Uganda!) — with my SFCU credit card and never had to waste my money on unnecessary fees! Thank you, SFCU!” - Martin Koenen We’re in the business of helping people explore the world. #ILoveMyCreditUnion #StanfordFCU #YesToYourSuccess

About us
In 1959 a group of Stanford University employees pooled their resources to create a financial institution that would be better than a bank, and dedicated to serving Stanford. Our membership grew to include the entire Stanford community—faculty, staff, students, volunteers, alumni, employees of Stanford Health Care and SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory. As Stanford FCU’s reputation grew, more people wanted to become part of the Stanford community. Today we still strive to be better than a bank by putting our members’ needs first, and aspiring to be a trusted financial partner. We work with cutting edge technology companies to service the financial needs of their talented employees who expect the best products, service and experience. We’re proud that our community is an epicenter of innovation, and includes top-performing companies like Google, Facebook, Tesla, Genentech, SAP, VMware, Amazon, Oracle and Visa. Nestled in the heart of Silicon Valley, Stanford FCU was the first financial institution to offer the convenience of online banking. Innovation and member convenience continue to be a top priority, as we draw on Stanford University’s innovation and our high-tech community. Another priority that’s aligned with our mission to improve financial lives is our financial education. We offer free online learning modules, personal counseling, and free seminars (approximately 100 per year!). Federally Insured by NCUA. Equal Housing Lender. NMLS #729643

In addition SFCU provided a home equity loan to help us improve our home.” - John P. Kennedy Member milestones are our favorite thing. #ILoveMyCreditUnion #StanfordFCU #YesToYourSuccess

“…thanks to SFCU I was able to fulfill my long time goal and dream of moving to the US and supporting my relocation when my company promoted me. Thanks to their consultants and account managers, I was able to gain the line of credit needed to find our home and have a better start to our new lives. We will always be happy and grateful with Stanford FCU for being part of my family’s new life.” – Hugo Valle We love being a part of someone’s success story! #ILoveMyCreditUnion #StanfordFCU #YesToYourSuccess
