First Option Credit Union is a well established provider of banking and financial services. We exist solely to benefit employees, their families and contractors at our host companies, spanning the gaming, leisure, hotel and petrochemical industries.

For over 40 years, we have actively looked after our Members, as we understand their specific needs and have grown alongside our host companies and their people.

The "First Option" name was launched in July 2005, when TAB Credit Union (NSW) merged with Flying Horse Credit Union (Victoria); to create an industrially focused Credit Union. In January 2008, Ericsson Credit Union joined the First Option Family.

Joining First Option means that you are a ‘co-owner’ of the Credit Union with profits being used to improve interest rates and services for all Members. Whilst we do need to charge some fees to cover business costs, you will find these are significantly lower than most other financial institutions, with our interest rates on both deposits and loans being highly competitive.

First Option meets your everyday banking needs with:

• ATM and EFTPOS access
• Bank@Post at Australia Post
• BPAY
• Branches
• Credit and Debit Card facilities
• Cheque book facilities
• Internet banking
• Telephone banking
• And much more...

We also offer:

• Personal, car, home, investment and business loans
• Overdrafts & Credit Cards
• Home, contents and car insurance (pay by the month at no extra cost)
• Foreign exchange products
• Financial planning

First Option Credit Union provides superior Member service and is constantly improving its range of products and services through understanding Member needs. Our strong relationships come from our long history and links to the Gaming, Leisure, hotel and Industrial communities.

And even if you change employment or no longer work within the same industry, you and your family get to keep your Credit Union benefits for life!
