How WyHy Compares to Traditional Banks
Many people wonder how credit unions like WyHy compare to traditional banks. While both offer similar financial services, there are some important differences that set credit unions apart:
- Ownership Structure: Credit unions are member-owned, meaning profits are returned to members in the form of better rates and services. Banks are shareholder-owned, meaning profits are distributed to stockholders, not customers.
- Fee Comparison: Credit unions tend to have lower fees for services like checking accounts, ATM withdrawals, and overdrafts, while banks may charge higher fees and penalties.
- Personalized Support: WyHy provides a personalized service that focuses on building strong relationships with our members, unlike banks that prioritize transactions.
- Support for Local Communities: WyHy is committed to making a difference in our local community through various charitable initiatives, something larger banks may not prioritize.
