On December 7, 2022 Rivertown Community Federal Credit Union members overwhelmingly voted in favor of merging with Allegan Credit Union. We are excited to welcome the Rivertown Community members and team members to the Allegan Family.

What happens next? After the legal merger date of January 1, we will begin working on an integration process with a goal of having Rivertown’s systems fully joined with ours by the first part of 2023.

Thank you for being a member of Allegan Credit Union! We’re looking forward to an exciting and successful 2023!

At Allegan Credit Union it's our mission to be more than just a financial institution. To be a source of support and development for our communities and the people who are part of them. And that’s why we’re Growing the Love!

Growing the Love means spreading good will in our communities with random acts of kindness and community engagement. If you’ve received one of our Grow the Love tokens, then chances are you’ve already experienced a little bit of what Growing the Love can do—be it a free meal, a tank of gas, or any other gesture to lighten your load and brighten your day.

We invite you to keep the chain moving, and Grow the Love in your community however you see fit. And while you’re at it, visit our Facebook page and share your Grow the Love experiences! We can’t wait to see where all our tokens wind up.

Allegan Credit Union is proud to offer Banzai, a premium online financial literacy program, to educators and students in our community, at no cost to educators. We understand the importance of financial literacy in our world, but also empathize with the costs to implement the information in the classroom...so we're here to help.
