Funding
New members are required to operate both a call account and a loan provider account. The minimum contribution for each account is $2.50 and $5.00 per week respectively. These funds are available for use. Once a member takes out a personal loan the loan provider account funds are frozen for the term of that loan.
If you wish to apply for a Personal Loan, you may submit your Loan Application form at the same time you submit your Application for Membership. This saves you time and allows us to process your application without delay.
NOTE: Proof of account funding must be received before any loan funds are advanced.
