Banking for Unions: How the Right Deposit Accounts Can Support Your Mission and Members
Unions are more than negotiators: they’re advocates, protectors, and partners in building stronger communities.
From championing workers’ rights to supporting families during uncertain times, your mission runs deeper than most financial systems account for. That’s why your union deserves more than a generic business account. It deserves a business banking relationship that reflects your purpose.
Our team understands the real-world needs of union leadership. You’re managing complicated finances, transitioning officers, upholding transparency, and doing it all on behalf of the people who count on you. Our role? To be the partner you can count on, day in and day out.
Why Union Banking Requires a Different Approach
Standard banking products may not cover everything you need when it comes to your union’s financial management. Your organization manages everything from membership dues and strike funds to retirement benefits and payroll disbursement. These activities require you to have financial tools that are secure, transparent, and easy to manage.
Common union financial challenges can include:
- Complex fund structures (operating vs. legal defense funds)
- Digital access for rotating leadership
- Secure and compliant transaction reporting
- Audit-readiness and transparency tools
These unique needs can’t be met with any out-of-the-box account. That’s why unions benefit from banking solutions designed specifically for their structure and values.
