Bank Overview

AmeriCU has been locally owned for over 50 years. We believe that our success is tied to the success of our community. We support national organizations with local ties, like the American Cancer Society’s Relay for Life in Rome, New York and the American Heart Association’s Walk challenges in Utica and Syracruse.

We are also an active supporter and sponsor of more local events like the Taste of Syracuse: Restaurant Rescue and the Be a Neighbor Fund, which was founded to help local small businesses. We believe and know that small businesses employ many of our customers and their success means the success of the entire community.

AmeriCU also actively supports cancer research through the Baldwin Fund, which provides research in the New York Area in an attempt to find ways to prevent and cure cancer.

AmeriCU offers personal banking, business banking, and investment services for both. One of our goals is financial literacy, so we have financial advisors as well as student education for financial wellness. We believe in teaching students and adults how to invest and make responsible choices with money. Our goal is to help you with a lifetime of financial advice and borrowing needs, regardless of which stage of life you are starting in.
