How WyHy Compares to Traditional Banks
Credit unions like WyHy offer distinct advantages over traditional banks. Here’s a breakdown of the key differences:
- Who Owns WyHy? 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.
- Customer Service: 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.
