Comparison to Traditional Banks
Credit unions like WyHy offer distinct advantages over traditional banks. Here’s a breakdown of the key differences:
- Who Owns WyHy? Credit unions are member-owned, meaning profits are returned to members in the form of better rates and services. Banks are shareholder-owned, meaning profits are distributed to stockholders, not customers.
- Lower Fees: Credit unions tend to have lower fees for services like checking accounts, ATM withdrawals, and overdrafts, while banks may charge higher fees and penalties.
- Customer Service: With WyHy, you’ll experience more attentive and personalized customer service, something big banks can’t match.
- Support for Local Communities: Credit unions are often more engaged in local communities through charitable initiatives, sponsorships, and financial education, while banks prioritize profit maximization.
