We're more than a credit union. We're a group of people dedicated to helping people in the Midlands of South Carolina.

About us

In 1955, 15 civilian employees at Shaw Air Force base in Sumter, South Carolina pooled their money to charter SAFE Federal Credit Union. Since then, SAFE has grown to over 130,000 members and just over $1.6 billion in assets. SAFE is the largest Midlands based credit union with 18 branches in eight counties in South Carolina. SAFE exists only to serve our members, and when you join, you also become an owner. Our not-for-profit structure allows our members to enjoy generally higher dividends on savings, lower loan interest rates, and fewer fees. And you can be sure your money is safe with us, as all deposits are insured up to $250,000 by the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA).

  • Who would have thought that Financial Literacy could be such a blast?! (Spoiler alert: we totally knew!) The 8th graders at Alice Drive Middle School wowed us with their excitement during Financial Literacy Week as they dove into budgeting, figured out the difference between fixed and variable expenses, and learned why saving is super important. We're so proud of these amazing students for taking steps towards building bright financial futures!
