Over 60 years ago, credit unions across the island of Ireland were created with one purpose - to provide the essential funding that’s the lifeblood of any thriving community. And to do this not for profit. But for better reasons.
For dream homes and dream holidays. For new cars and new arrivals. For rainy days and everyday expenses. Whatever your reasons for needing a loan, we’ve got one to suit you.
The Credit Union – For You. Not for Profit
Loan Repayments
The maximum interest rate which a credit union can charge is 12% (12.68% APR)*. Most credit unions have loan interest rates which are significantly lower than that and offer a loan interest rebate at the end of the year. The maximum term of a personal loan is ten years. The minimum and maximum loan amount is set locally by each credit union. Why not try our new loan calculator tool below to see how much a personal loan could cost you.
