Welcome to The Department of Commerce Federal Credit Union
At the Department of Commerce Federal Credit Union (DOCFCU), we’ve been serving the best interests of our members for nearly 100 years. Our nation and the world as a whole has changed monumentally since our founding, but we remain true to our goal of serving all of our members well, including those of modest means.
We are firmly committed to helping our members “live well, below their means” in order to enjoy financial stability in good times and bad. We offer the tools and guidance to help them make the most of their money – and to plan for a future of their own design.
