When you open a Business Account at KTVAECU, you receive the same great service you’ve come to expect as a Member of the Credit Union. Whether you have a stand at the local farmer’s market, run a business out of your home, or you’re opening your first location, our Business Services team is here to help meet your needs.
Business Accounts at a credit union differ from banks in one significant way: fees. Banks look for as many ways as possible to charge you fees, which take funds away from your business. Some of those bank fees may include monthly fees, transaction fees, minimum balance fees, and even fees for depositing money. It can be difficult to keep track of what you’re being charged for. At KTVAECU, we are a not-for-profit financial cooperative. That means we are not fee-focused. Instead, YOU and your business are our top priority, and we do not charge excessive fees. As a not-for-profit financial cooperative, we strive to offer compelling dividend rates in our service offerings.
At KTVAECU, our goal is to help your business thrive. We know how important it is to have a financial partner you can trust. That’s why we offer simple, inexpensive, and easy-to-understand products for local businesses of all sizes and industries
