CUA Ranked #1 in the U.S. for Giving Members the Most Value

We have big news to share. Credit Union of America has been officially recognized as the number one credit union in the nation for delivering the most value to its members!* 

This top ranking comes from Callahan & Associates’ Return of the Member (ROM) Index. Based on third quarter 2025 data, the report named CUA the leading credit union in our asset category out of 208 peer institutions nationwide. 

What Sets CUA  Apart as the Best Credit Union in Kansas 

Credit Union of America puts members first in everything we do — and the results speak for themselves. More savings, better rates, and trusted everyday service are just a few of the reasons members choose CUA and stay with us. 

Our recent recognition from Callahan & Associates confirms that commitment. Their Return of the Member (ROM) Index is a nationally respected measurement used across the credit union industry. It evaluates how much value credit unions return to their members through savings, loan affordability, and service usage. 

Here’s how Credit Union of America stood out: 

  • Paid dividends at more than one and a half times the average of peer credit unions, helping members grow their savings faster.
  • Achieved a 4.93% member growth rate over three years, more than twice the industry average, showing growing trust and member satisfaction. 
  • Provided auto loans to 78% more members than peer institutions, helping more people drive away with competitive rates and personalized service. 

These results highlight what matters most: giving our members real value and practical tools to support their financial goals. From saving more to borrowing smarter, CUA is committed to helping members thrive.
