We've made big changes. Here's where we stand — and what comes next.
Civic is here to help guide you through this transition
Check out the LGFCU to Civic Member Transition Guide. It has everything you need to know as we move to Civic!
Can I add my card to my digital wallet?
Yes, if your card is loaded in Card Control+, you can add it to your digital wallet. If you’re waiting for your card to arrive, you can see it in Card Control+ and add it to your wallet.
How can I see my account balance?
You can log in to online banking or your Civic app to check your balance; call us for online banking and speak to our digital assistant, Vicki; or visit an ATM to do a balance inquiry.
How do I make a payment for a Civic loan?
You can make your personal loan, auto loan or HELOC payment by transferring your payment from your Civic account using online banking. When you receive your next statement, you can review the appropriate address for mailing your payment, if you prefer to pay by check.
I’m new to Civic. How do I log into online banking?
If you’re an LGFCU member, you can use your LGFCU username and password. If you’re new to Civic, you can log in from this page and follow the prompts to register.
If I’m visiting a CO-OP Shared Branch to move some money, what do I need to bring?
You should bring a valid government-issued ID, know at least one of your Civic account numbers, and be aware that you should advise the staff you’re a Civic member.
Now that conversion has finished, how do I make mortgage payments?
We emailed mortgage-holders in May to let them know that Civic mortgages (and former LGFCU mortgages) are now serviced by our partner, the Credit Union Mortgage Association (CUMA). But this doesn’t mean your mortgage has been sold.
Mortgage payment information is available through the CUMA website, accessible through this link or through Civic online banking — by selecting “More,” then “Transfers & Payments,” then “Mortgage Payment.” You’ll be linked to the CUMA website.
You can also make payments at Civic branches by cash or check.

Civic = Local Government
It was easy to set up the accounts, just answering a few questions and completing the required paperwork, she says. Everybody I dealt with at Civic was great and walked me through it.

5 Based on external benchmarking. Rates were compared for the credit union members who originated a personal loan between 01/01/23 and 10/31/23. The interest rate they would have received with another financial institution was compared to the interest rate they received with the credit unions. For closed-end loans, the interest savings was calculated on the full amortization of the loan being held to maturity. For open-end loans, the interest savings was calculated using the members average balance in 2023 and assuming an average lifecycle of four years.
6 Based on external benchmarking. Rates were compared for all members who opened an STC or Choice Certificate account between 01/01/23 and 10/31/23. The dividends they would have received with another financial institution were compared to the dividends they received with Local Government or Civic Federal Credit Unions. The estimated additional dividends assumes members hold the STCs to maturity.
