Refinance & Greater Savings
"Greater Kentucky Credit Union was a lifesaver for me! I was paying an extremely high interest rate on my auto loan. Greater Kentucky Credit Union was able to cut my rate in half, reduce the term of my loan, and save me money on my monthly payments. They also helped me open a fantastic account with an amazing interest rate."

High Yield Checking
"My husband and I moved to Lexington from out of state, and we were looking for the right financial institution for us—one that wasn’t too big and offered top notch customer service and a personalized experience. We have been thrilled with the cashback from our high yield checking account and the services we have received thus far. The Lexington branch is convenient to both our places of work, and mobile banking works well for us."

Better Checking, Greater Service
"Heard they were offering 4% annually on a checking account, so I opened an account for my wife and I. Process could not have gone any smoother! Shoutout to Susan for making the process extremely simple and straightforward. The staff I've spoken to have all been pleasant and seem knowledgeable about current offers and rates."
