What's the difference between a bank and a credit union? There are a few, but perhaps the biggest is that a credit union is not-for-profit institution, owned and controlled by its members, not outside investors.
Like a bank, credit unions offer staple financial products and services, including checking and savings accounts, credit cards and a variety of loan products.
VacationLand Federal Credit Union is offering new or current VLFCU Visa® cardholders tremendous benefits just for transferring a credit card balance from another financial institution or retailer to our Visa® Rewards credit cards. This value-packed offer is good only through October 31, 2019 and can earn you ScoreCard® Rewards for travel, gift cards, merchandise, or statement cash.
