CULOOKUP.COM NOW ALL-IN-ONE PERSONAL FINANCE SITE FOR CONSUMERS, INCLUDING RATE COMPARISONS
WASHINGTON – The industry-leading credit
union locator site, www.CULookup.com,
today announced the addition of a rate comparison tool for consumers. Now,
CULookup.com is a one-stop personal finance site. CULookup.com is the only Web site that
allows consumers to compare the rates between credit unions and banks, identify
credit unions they may be eligible to join and access 30 personal finance
calculators.
“With the addition of the rate
comparison and calculators to CULookup.com,
we’re reaching out to all the consumers that don’t yet know what a great deal
credit unions are," said NAFCU President Fred
Becker. “The rate comparison tool demonstrates the benefits
of credit unions over banks for a variety of financial products. CULookup.com is a one-of-a kind online
resource and was recently highlighted by Consumer Reports as a great resource
to find a credit union.”
To compare rates, consumers can
visit www.culookup.com/CompareCURates.
The calculators can be found at www.culookup.com/calculators.
They offer financial guidance in five broad categories: home/mortgage, savings,
credit, retirement and auto.
CULookup.com was
developed, underwritten and is maintained by NAFCU
