We offer personal loans {for those who qualify … loan approval is based on your current credit standing} with payment terms of up to 72 months. Our affordable rates are lower than most retail/store credit rates with no need for collateral. We will develop an installment payment plan, so you know your monthly payments, when payments are due and when your loan will be paid off.

flexLINE of Credit
We all can use a little extra money at times. This line of credit is a pre-approved amount that you can tap into only if you want or need it. Members appreciate this safety net as it:
- Maintains cash flow
- Can be accessed in case of emergencies or miscalculations
- Gets repaid at a fixed interest rate
- Involves no annual fees
- Can help avoid costly fees when attached to a checking account
Accessing your flexLINE is easy. Draw off it by visiting Extra Credit Union, using a debit or ATM card, or use eBanking to transfer funds to your checking or savings accounts. A flexLINE, when used responsibly, can even help improve your credit score.

Debt Crusher Program
Are you heavily burdened and drowning in bills and outstanding debt from credit cards, medical expenses, store credit cards, utility payments, or other outstanding debt? Extra Credit Union can help you become virtually stress free through debt consolidation.
Break the cycle of payday lenders, bill collectors, late fees, and overdraft fees when you consolidate your debts into one loan. Rather than multiple payments to many different creditors, make just one payment with one interest rate on one day {or more if you choose bi-weekly or other payment options} each month.
You’ll also save money by paying off high-interest debt with a single, affordable loan. Plus, you’ll receive reasonable terms to pay off your bills with no hidden fees or charges.
Take the first step in making life more bearable today.

The process is simple.
Apply online or at Extra Credit Union's Main Office. Your application will be reviewed and a credit union representative will contact you to get more information, which may include:
- Proof of income {a pay stub or letter} of your source of income {an allowance or taxable income}
- A high school transcript or report card
- A character reference from someone you know {a supervisor, teacher, school counselor}. School attendance and grades will be taken into consideration
- Other information that your credit union representative requests
