Membership Savings Account

A Membership Savings account establishes your credit union membership and pays competitive dividends. A minimum balance of $250 is required to earn dividends.

Christmas Club Account

Our Christmas Club account is an excellent way to save for the holidays and pays competitive rates. The funds are transferred to a specified SMW 104 Federal Credit Union Share account or disbursed by check (upon request), on the first working day of November. The final day to deposit is October 31st. This account is NCUA insured.

Union Dues Account

Our Union Dues account pays your Sheet Metal Workers’ Local Union No 104 District 1 and District 2 monthly dues. Upon request, funds can be transferred from your Regular Savings, Vacation Pay, Money Market or Checking Account. To establish your automatic payment, authorization forms are available at the credit union office or any of the Sheet Metal Workers’ Local Union No 104 district offices.

Tools Account

Our Tools account is available to Apprentice members of Sheet Metal Workers’ Local Union No 104. This account makes it easier to purchase the tools you need and make 10-payments.

Money Market Account

Our Money Market accounts are ideal for members who want to earn higher dividends than a traditional savings account, yet offer more flexibility. You have the ability to take up to three withdrawals monthly without penalty. A minimum balance of $2,500 is required to earn dividends.

Loan Payment Savings

Our Loan Payment Savings accounts are used to pay SMW 104 Federal Credit Union loan payments, which are set-up on an automatic transfer and originate from the Vacation Pay account. Should the account balance be insufficient to cover the monthly payment(s), a courtesy letter will be mailed prior to the due date to advise of the shortage and payment options.

We accept deposits by cash, check, payroll deduction, direct deposit, using our Mobile Deposit, at any CO-OP Shared Branch location or via ATM using your SMW 104 Federal Credit Union issued Visa Debit card. Our Routing Number is 321171317.
