In-Branch Services: WPCCU’s six branches serving different regions of Los Angeles County offer complete services to all members, including checking, savings, loans and cash, and are part of the shared branch network, which provides more than 200 additional service locations. In addition, each branch has an ATM for fast access. WPCCU is a member of the CO-OP, STAR and PLUS ATM networks,
offering members access to their accounts from any of the 15,000 ATMs in those networks. Two of the branches, Sunset and Northridge, are shared branches, and three, Sun Valley, Westchester and Montebello are open Saturdays.

Consumer Loans: For educational, auto, personal, and secured loans, WPCCU’s consumer loan
products meet almost every financial need of its members with varying dollar limits and terms. Members with less than sufficient credit histories can use share-secured loans, using their funds in WPCCU accounts as collateral. No matter the source or use of the loan, members can arrange automatic payment plans through payroll deductions or automatic transfers from their checking accounts.

24 hours in most cases. In addition, WPCCU’s Smart Home Buyer Service Water and Power Community Credit Union Product And Services Fact Sheet offered through HomeSold, offers members resources to shop for a home using the online Multiple Listing Service, mortgage calculator, and other tools.

at any CUDL-associated dealership, in one easy step, or use one of our preferred partners, Autoland or Enterprise.
