Our history
Since 1952, we’ve proudly served Massachusetts residents. Originally founded for New England Electric System employees, we transitioned to a community-based credit union in 1998. This shift allowed us to offer better products and services, expand our membership, and increase community reinvestment. Today, we’re one of Central Massachusetts’ largest federal credit unions.
Every aspect of the services they provide is exceptional: knowledgeable, professional, friendly and courteous, and "go that extra mile" for members and their protection. Central One Federal Credit Union's model is unparalleled, in my opinion, barring none.
Award-winning institution recognized by our community.
