America’s Credit Unions announces dues freeze for 2027

America’s Credit Unions is freezing its dues next year, keeping members’ invoiced amount in 2026 at the same level for 2027 and underscoring the organization's commitment to responsible stewardship, transparency, and member engagement as it evaluates the future of its membership investment model.

The decision reflects the organization's Board of Directors’ desire to take the necessary time to develop a framework that serves credit unions of all sizes. President/CEO Scott Simpson announced the freeze in an email sent to all members Wednesday, following the Board of Directors approval at its meeting last month.

"Freezing dues for 2027 is about honoring our members' investment, listening to their voice, and demonstrating our commitment to building a stronger future for all credit unions," Simpson said in a statement. "Members should expect both responsible stewardship of their investment today and meaningful results that strengthen the credit union movement tomorrow. We are taking the time to get this right because our members deserve a membership dues model that is transparent, equitable, and built for the future. As we work alongside members to shape that future, our guiding principle remains simple: Your Investment. Your Voice. Our Commitment."

The freeze will not slow down America’s Credit Unions' efforts in advocacy, regulatory engagement, education, and support for credit unions, with the organization remaining focused on advancing, empowering, and protecting the credit union movement at every level.

Member feedback is important to America’s Credit Unions, with ongoing efforts to listen to members through the Engagement Team, its committees and task forces, as well as the upcoming Member Satisfaction survey that will be sent directly to member CEOs.
