As a full-service credit union, Metro offers all of the financial products and delivery innovations that you'd expect from a large financial institution.

Company History
Founded in 1926 and headquartered in Chelsea, Massachusetts, Metro Credit Union is a cooperative financial institution, owned and controlled by the people who use and benefit from our products and services. We’re different from banks because we are a non-profit cooperative that is dedicated to the financial success of our members; and not focused on paying dividends to stockholders or maximizing profits for shareholders. The money we bring in is reinvested in our Members through better rates and lower fees.
The philosophy of Metro Credit Union is “people helping people.” Each member is an equal owner, regardless of how much money is deposited with the credit union.
