The interest rates will vary based on credit report and relationship of a member with EFCU. The field of membership survey shows that the potential members are interested for new and used vehicle loans as well as refinancing existing vehicles. About 2,400 potential members have shown interests for a new motor vehicle, and about 200 to 300 members are interested for used motor vehicle loans and refinancing existing motor vehicle. EFCU will ensure that the motor vehicles are properly inspected and certified before granting the loans. EFCU gives preferences to Uber driver and other cab driver to provide vehicle based collateral loan because people in the community can generate income from driving services. This will help community members to uplift their financial situation. These members then direct deposit their income to EFCU checking account. EFCU will ensure that the installment payments are directly withdrawn from their checking accounts. The vehicle loan is purely for new and existing vehicle but, this loan is not for medallion loan.

Credit Cards (Coming soon)

EFCU will offer credit cards to its members on the basis of their credit report and relationship. Since it may not be possible to offer credit cards in first year of operation, EFCU aims to offer credit cards at the end of first year of operation as a pilot program. The credit cards may range from $500 to $10,000, and the amount may be gradually increased from lower to higher amount based on payment record and credit reports. The interest rate and payback terms and conditions will be based on members’ credit report, existing market rate, and EFCU policies. Nevertheless, the interest rates will be lowered in compare to average market rate considering the members’ needs of building their credits. As EFCU members are fairly newly migrated people, they are willing to expose into the credit market to build their credit. Therefore, this product is in very high demand in EFCU membership base.

Chitto / Quick Loans

EFCU will offer Chhitto/Quick Loans are loans under $1,000 made to members of the credit union with emergency liquidity needs.
