News and Events

Credit Union Day is just around the corner! Here’s what we have planned for the day: From 11 am to 2 pm we'll be hosting our annual brat & hot dog cookout in Rock Island! We'll be set up in a tent in the parking lot. Grab lunch to-go or have a seat and enjoy lunch with us! We will also have a Gift Card Giveaway online, on Credit Union Day.

2026 GECU calendars are here! Pick one up next time you're in or give us call and we'll get one mailed out to you. Calendar choices this year include Baby Farm Animals or Glorious Getaways.

Our offices will be closed on Monday, October 13th, for CU Kind Day. CU Kind Day is an initiative that began in 2019 by the Illinois Credit Union League to help spread kindness and Credit Union awareness throughout our community. We are excited to once again participate in this fun event and look forward to reporting back the details of our day!

Please be aware that we have a new check provider, and orders may look slightly different. The MICR line (the line of numbers at the bottom of the checks) will differ from the previous checks you have ordered. If you have any questions about the checks, please feel free to call us.

Love GECU? Why not share us with your family and co-workers (within our select employee groups)? Plus, when you refer a member to GECU, you BOTH receive a gift! We are offering a $50 bonus to new members AND the members who refer them! Here’s how it works: Use a Referral Rewards card, or simply have the new member tell us you referred them when they join. When they join and open a checking account with direct deposit, you’ll both be rewarded with $50 cash into your accounts! See who is eligible to join here.
