1. Tell us about Sperry Federal Credit Union and the inspiration behind the company:

We were founded in 1936 when a group of Sperry Gyroscope employees banded together to obtain high quality, low cost financial services for their families. Today, we are a community-based, non-profit financial institution with 80 years of experience in providing financial solutions to Long Island residents and their families. We offer a variety of financial products and services from Mortgages to Car Loans to Youth Savings Accounts and even, Wedding Loans. We strive to add new services, innovative products and technologies to strengthen the foundation and success of our Credit Union and ultimately benefit our Members.

2. Do you have a company motto/philosophy and if so what is it?

We carry the “people helping people” philosophy by providing our Members with Better Rates…Better Service…Better Banking™.

3. If you met a bride or groom to be and had literally one minute to tell them why they should use your company what would you say?

Want an open bar? Or to upgrade your photography package? At Sperry FCU, we can provide you and your future spouse with an affordable solution. Our Wedding Loans are specially designed for couples that are on a budget. And nowadays, who isn’t? With rates as low as 3.99% APR, our Wedding Loan can help you achieve the wedding you both have been dreaming of. And when the wedding is over and it’s time to purchase your first home or another car, we’ve got you covered.

4. What sets you apart from other financial institution?

We are not a bank. We are better. We may look like a bank but at the heart of our credit union, there’s a big difference – it’s our Members. As a credit union, we don’t pay stockholders; instead we invest our earnings back into our Membership. That means lower fees, better rates on loans, and higher rates on deposits. We are also a proud supporter of our Armed Forces and extend special offers and discounts to military personnel and their families. We offer some of the lowest loan rates on Long Island – including our low-rate Wedding Loan! Come experience the Credit Union Difference at Sperry FCU.

Whether that’s helping you finance your first home, your latest vehicle, or your dream wedding, Sperry FCU offers low-rate loans to cover any and all expenses. We know planning your big day means incurring big costs. From flowers to transportation, and don’t forget the gown! Our low-rate Wedding Loan is an affordable and convenient solution to making your dream wedding a reality. Don’t regret cutting out certain vendors or details later on.
