About

Veridian Credit Union is a member-owned, not-for-profit financial cooperative headquartered in Waterloo, Iowa. Established in 1934 as John Deere Employees Credit Union, the organization was created to provide employees with an alternative to traditional commercial banking. It later expanded its membership and changed its name to Veridian Credit Union in 2006. Today, it serves members across Iowa, eastern Nebraska, and the Minneapolis–St. Paul metropolitan area.

The credit union offers personal and business financial services, including checking and savings accounts, mortgages, auto loans, personal loans, credit cards, and business banking solutions. It also provides online and mobile banking tools to make financial management more convenient. As a cooperative, Veridian is governed by a member-elected board and focuses on returning value to members through competitive rates, affordable services, financial education, and community development initiatives.
