Who can join Gesa?

Because credit unions are designed to serve people who share a common bond, eligibility is a factor for membership. But there are all kinds of ways to qualify! It could be where you live, work, go to school.

We actively stand in accordance with Equal Opportunity for All. Gesa memberships will not be discriminated against on the basis of race, color, national origin, sex, age, or disability.

Open your account(s)

The Smart Plus Savings account represents your $5 share in the cooperative, and it’s required for all members. You can also open an additional account at the same time, if you’d like.

To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, Federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who opens an account. What this means for you: when you open an account, we will ask for your name, address, date of birth, and other information that will allow us to identify you. We may also ask to see your driver’s license or other identifying documents.
