Shared Branches

Forge Credit Union is part of the CO-OP Shared Branch network. As a Forge Credit Union member, you now have the ability to do deposits, withdrawals, loan payments, transfers, and inquiries on your accounts at over 5,000 branches nationwide. In order to access your account, you need the following information:

 

• Our credit union name
• Your full account number, without the dash
• A valid government issued ID
• Last four digits of your Social Security number
• Your Address
• Signature

 

Forge Credit Union understands it’s crucial to help protect you from account takeover fraud. That’s why we are introducing a new ID proofing measure for in-person visits to any Shared Branch location. This new fraud prevention measure allows us to make certain it is YOU trying to access your account, not an impostor.

If you bank at one of our Shared Branch locations, a teller can now identify and authenticate members in the branch through a QR code and one-time passcode multi-factor authentication verification. This additional layer of authentication will be used for all shared branch transactions.

How it Works:

• Scan the QR code located in the branch or visit verify.coop.org.
• Select your credit union’s name from a drop-down list.
• Enter your member number and the last four digits of your Social Security number.
• Upload a photo of your ID.
• Take a selfie: Tip: Save your validation for an even quicker experience next time!
• Show your one-time passcode to the teller (passcode is valid for 20 minutes).

If you have any questions, please contact us at 610-352-2000 during regular business hours.
