Reliable Identity Check
We’ve created a way for you to share proof of ID with us that’s both secure and reliable. As you progress with your application, you will be given an opportunity to show your ID there and then. There’s no waiting around.
Quick Online Access
Once your membership has been approved, we'll text you a temporary pin so you can have immediate access to your online account. You won’t have to worry about anything, we will do the rest.
All adult members must pay a £1 affiliation fee annually and hold £5 savings in their account at all times. Once a new account has been created, a deposit of at least £6 must be made within 2 days, this can be done in the following ways:
- Over the phone - You can make debit card payments over the phone by calling the Portadown office on (028) 38335104
- In person at Portadown Credit Union- 26 Market Street, Portadown
Deposits can be made by cash, cheque or debit payment
If you are a parent/guardian, you can open a minor saving account for the child, if they’re under the age of 16.
In order to open this account, you will need:
- Child’s birth certificate
- Photographic ID of the individual opening the account
- Proof of address (acceptable verification is stated above)
Minor accounts can only be open in office and they will mature into adult accounts when the child reaches the age of 16. At this time, the 16 year old will have sole access to the account and the money held in it.
