Erie County Employees Credit Union offers a full range of loan services tailored to your needs. The credit union uses a credit based lending program to help as many members as possible obtain credit. Our goal is to offer our membership the lowest possible loan rates while continuing to pay dividends to our saving members.
You can expect all of our loan services to come with the prompt and friendly service you deserve as a member-owner of Erie County Employees Credit Union.
Vehicle Loans
Searching for just the right vehicle can be extremely time consuming. Don't waste additional time searching for a place to finance your loan. Our rates are competitive, the loan application process is quick and convenient, and the service you'll receive is friendly and efficient. We finance both new and used vehicles.
Recreational Vehicle Loans
The credit union also offers financing for Motorhomes, Travel Trailers, Boats, Motorcycles, Jet Skis, and Snowmobiles.
Unsecured Loans
Upon approved credit, the credit union offers Unsecured Loans. Sometimes called "Signature Loans", these loans don't require any collateral, just your promise to pay, making them a great alternative to credit cards for smaller expenses like vacations, car repairs, or holiday gift giving.
Share Secured Loans
Share Secured Loans are loans backed up by your own Share (Savings) Account. Naturally, these loans have a lower interest rate because payment is guaranteed by an amount in your share account that is equal to the balance of the loan. Your savings will continue to earn dividends while you are paying up the loan, making this loan perfect for first time borrowers wanting to establish their credit.
