We may have a new style, but don’t worry


—when it comes to how we treat members like you, we’re still easy to recognize. MECU Credit Union is and always will be member-owned, community-focused, and committed to offering the products and services you need to thrive.

And now that we have a fresh look on the outside, we’re stepping up our efforts on the inside, too. That means focusing on what we do best: empowering members to improve their financial well-being and live better. 

Built on four pillars the new branding reflects the founding principles that set MECU Credit Union apart and lays a strong foundation for growth.

For All

No matter how small your need or how big your dream, we’re with you every step of the way.

Our members are family, and you’ll see it in the way we treat you.

On behalf of everyone at MECU, thank you for your membership. Your financial future is bright, and we’re honored to be providing the experience that will get you there.


What Is the Meaning Behind the New Logo?

The graphic “m” in the logo represents MECU’s dual focus, i.e., our focus on the individual and our focus on serving our community.  When the two come together, they form an “m” shape and represents the two groups we are commited to serving. 
The new logo illustrates who we are and what we stand for.  The look is welcoming, friendly, and modern.  It represents an evolution in our history. Confirms our charge to grow and modernize, yet affirms our past and our mission to provide better banking to all.

Our Story

The year was 1936. America was stuck in the Great Depression. Banks were closing everywhere. Loan sharks stepped into their place. And, so MECU was launched to make sure hard-working municipal employees got a fair deal.  
Fast-forward nearly a century in many ways we’re still the same. We still look out for our community, contributing grants and volunteers to many worthy causes. And, we still look out for working people with better interest rates and lower fees than the big banks.
In many ways, however, in many ways MECU has changed.  Our membership is now open to all Baltimore metro area residents and grown to over 110,000 strong. And, we've evolved to offer start-of-the-art banking technology. 
The new brand represents a new chapter in our history—one we are excited to share it with you.

Rebranding FAQ

The new look reflects our renewed commitment to you and to our community. It re-affirms our mission to empower our members to improve their financial well-being and live better.
