About Us

Building better communities. This is our story.

Since the humble beginnings in 1949 to the trusted brand we are today, the wellbeing of our members has always been our main focus. We started with one branch and have since grown to three branches serving more than 4,000 members. We are big enough to provide you with everything you need but small enough to stay connected to you, our member.

At Biggar and District Credit Union we pride ourselves on providing innovative, high quality financial products, excellent customer service, and trusted advice from our local experts – everything you’d expect from your financial institution and more.

Our success as a financial cooperative is built on the lasting relationships we form with our members – whether in person or online. We are committed to building a prosperous community. By doing business with us, you are part of this larger purpose too!
