Banking That Works for You!

Southern Cross Credit Union has been serving the financial and banking needs of the Northern Rivers and South East Queensland communities since 1966. We were built on a foundation of entrepreneurial spirit by the Banana Growers Federation (BGF) after local growers found they were unable to access the services and products they needed from the banks of the time. The BGF pooled the savings of its members to create a financial cooperative to supply savings and loans products to its members. This entrepreneurial spirit continues at Southern Cross Credit Union today. We employ 70 people from across the Northern Rivers, are the trusted banking partner of over 15,000 customers, support more than 30 community groups and support and invest in more than 200 local businesses.

I am now very happy that we moved to the Southern Cross Credit Union. We should have done it years ago.
