1st Nor Cal Credit Union 1st Nor Cal Credit Union is a cooperative financial institution, helping our members achieve their financial goals since 1949. Board members serve voluntarily.

We offer a wide variety of products and services, backed by our commitment to the credit union philosophy, "people helping people". Those eligible for membership at 1st Nor Cal Credit Union include any and all persons who live, regularly work, currently attend school, or currently worship in Contra Costa, Solano, or Alameda counties, as well as any and all businesses, corporations, and other legal entities in those counties.

1st Nor Cal Credit Union is a not-for-profit financial cooperative. Credit unions do not issue stock or pay dividends to outside stockholders, like most other financial institutions. Instead, earnings are returned to our members in the form of lower loan rates, higher interest on deposits, and lower fees. We exist to serve our members, not to make a profit. Each credit union member has equal ownership and one vote, regardless of how much money you have on deposit. At 1st Nor Cal Credit Union, you’re both a member and an owner. We are governed by a board of directors, elected by and from the credit union’s membership.

Your Financial Institution Is Calling. Or Is It? 📱

Fraudulent calls impersonating banks and credit unions are on the rise, with scammers using caller ID spoofing to make their calls seem legitimate. This month’s featured Stickley on Security article, “Your Financial Institution Is Calling. Or Is It?” discusses ways to recognize if a call isn’t legitimate and the best ways to protect your finances in these situations. Even if the number looks familiar, the caller may not be who they claim to be.

California Memorial Stadium was buzzing on Saturday as Cal took on Virginia Tech. As the official sponsors of the game, we were honored to participate in the coin toss, receive shoutouts throughout the game, and take home the official game ball. Members of our 1st Nor Cal team were there to cheer on the Golden Bears and watch them as they defeated Virginia Tech. We’re proud to be part of the Cal Athletics community and to continue our partnership with them this season!

Up next, Cal is back at California Memorial Stadium this Saturday, where they'll face off against Wake Forest at 7:30pm. We'll be back at Oski Field to connect with visitors, fans, and Cal students before kick-off.
