Fee-Free ATMs
Your Association has led the fight against ATM surcharges as a consumer rights issue. To help credit union members avoid ATM surcharges, more than 400 credit unions in ten states have joined together to form the ATM Surcharge-Free Alliance.
This alliance, known as CU$®, allows members from participating credit unions to access their credit union accounts at ATMs owned by credit unions in the alliance without incurring a surcharge.
The network was established through a joint effort of the Pennsylvania Credit Union Association and Pennsylvania State Employees Credit Union (PSECU).
While the Pennsylvania ATM Placement Sales & Services believes that ATM surcharges are penalties on consumers, we’ve been unable to have legislation passed to have surcharges either regulated or eliminated. Working with PSECU, we have formed a “surcharge-free” ATM alliance for members of participating credit unions.
The CU$® alliance offers members surcharge-free ATM transactions at over 1227 ATMs. Members should look for the CU$® logo on any credit union ATM.
