Our Vision

We are excited to unveil a new direction as we become REV Federal Credit Union! Our new brand is part of a greater strategic vision to advance the credit union in a more modern, progressive and engaging way. Elevating our commitment to members, employees and the communities we serve is essential to the credit union’s mission of being the Lowcountry’s financial institution of choice.

Our new vision will reshape the member experience by enhancing technology and introducing a competitive suite of products and pricing. Newly enhanced deposit products and lower loan rates are also being unveiled.

The communities in which we live and serve are also benefiting from greater outreach and advocacy initiatives as we create more opportunities for our team members to get involved and support local non-profit organizations. Expanding on our financial literacy efforts, we continue to actively work with area organizations to develop programs that financially empower our region.

What to Expect

Skip to FAQs

Members can be reassured that during the transition to REV Federal Credit Union, there will be no impact to your accounts.

As REV, we will be re-shaping our current local footprint by making changes to our branch network. After a recent study which identified an overlap of branch coverage we will be closing our Joint Base Charleston and Oakbrook locations. Employees at those branches will remain with the credit union and be re-deployed to other locations to continue serving our members. In addition to this shift, we will be opening a new branch in the 22 WestEdge development in downtown Charleston.

Moving forward, members will see REV in a larger and more comprehensive way as we increase our level of support with local non-profits, organizations and community events.

Together, We Are REV!
