Who we are

Rockford Municipal Employees Credit Union has been serving our members since 1942 offering a variety of quality financial services. Charted on July 14, 1942, the original office was located at the Water Department with Wesley Johnson at the helm for many years. In August 1992, Rock-Winn Credit Union who served Winnebago county employees merged with Rockford Municipal Employees Credit Union. RMECU provides a complete line of services for all your financial needs and takes pride in a tradition of excellent service.

Once you become a RMECU member, you also become an owner. That’s the Credit Union difference. As a member-owner, you also help guide the Credit Union’s future by voting for our Board of Directors. So, your membership really does make a difference! And as a non-profit financial cooperative, RMECU offers you better rates, lower fees and easy access to a variety of financial products and services.

Thanks to the support of our membership, the Credit Union has over 2800 members and continues to grow and offer more services to meet your needs. Whether you are looking for higher yields on savings and investment, lower rates on a variety of loans (including vehicle, personal and home equity) or convenient services such as checking, low rate VISA® and ATM access to your account, RMECU offers all this and more.

RMECU is a state-chartered credit union, organized under strict regulatory laws that are monitored and enforce by the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) an agency of the U.S. Government and the Department of Financial Institutions (DFI) an agency of the state of Illinois. The NCUA insures each member account for $250,000.00.
