Finally, a real choice…

Current Account, provided by Tipperary Credit Union, gives you a real choice for your day-to-day financial needs.

With instant access to your money through a Mastercard® Debit Card, a secure app and online portal, and mobile functionality, you can pay your bills, withdraw cash and pay at point of sale, anywhere in the world.

Current Account is a full service current account, brought to you by your credit union. It’s more local, more trustworthy, and has our commitment to a sensible approach to money. With low and transparent fees, it’s more of what you would expect from your local credit union.

ATM Card

A Debit Mastercard® accompanies the current account. The card will be sent to you by post, followed by a PIN by post a few days later. This Debit Mastercard® is linked to your new Current Account only and not to your shares/savings. In the case of joint accounts, two debit cards can be issued on the one joint account.

CU Online Banking/Mobile App
