To apply for membership and services at Wescom Credit Union, certain eligibility criteria must be met. Credit unions are member-owned financial cooperatives, and membership is typically defined by a common bond.

Additionally, immediate family members of existing Wescom members are also eligible to join.
Meeting one of these criteria ensures you qualify for membership. When you begin your application, you will be asked to confirm your eligibility.
