-
We are New Zealand owned and operated (how many financial organisations do you know in New Zealand which can claim that these days?)
-
Our earnings are retained here in New Zealand – that’s correct, all profits go back to the members of Wine Country Credit Union – where else should members' money go?
Also:
Money deposited with us is lent only within our members. With us you know your savings are here working not only where they belong, but where they can make the most difference and have the most benefit for your community. New Zealand money improving the quality of life for New Zealand people!
When you join us, you automatically become an owner. This is for real! By joining, you become an owner of a financial services organisation. When you think about it, this is an exciting and truly unique opportunity!
Anyone who lives in New Zealand can join us. Professional, tradespeople, the retired, business people, those still at school, the rich and famous, seasonal workers – there are no exclusions. If want to make a difference and keep your money here in New Zealand working for New Zealand then we are here for you.
Membership is also open to Incorporated Societies registered under the Incorporated Societies Act 1908, and their members; and Charitable entities as defined by the Charities Act 2005 and their members.

DEPOSIT GUARANTEE SCHEME
We have been accepted into the Government deposit scheme. If you wish to view it, look at the treasury website www.treasury.govt.nz or www.interest.co.nz In October 2008, the NZ Government announced that all retail deposits in all banks, building societies, CREDIT UNIONS and finance companies (that are not in default of their trust deeds) will be guaranteed by the state, provided each institution meets minimum benchmarks for coverage. There is a limit in the amount protected of NZ$1 million per person in each insitution.
