What is Amplify?

We're a financial cooperative owned by our members - you. We have more than 40,000 members and we're growing every day. All deposits are federally insured by the full faith and credit of the US Government to at least $250,000 through the NCUSIF - the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund. NCUSIF insurance is a separate federal insurance fund similar to the deposit insurance protection offered by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). Retirement accounts are insured separately for up to an additional $250,000. Structured properly, it's possible to receive aggregate deposit insurance coverage for much greater amounts. Here's a brochure on deposit insurance, and you can also watch a short video on credit union deposit insurance.

What is the Amplify Experience?

It’s about keeping things simple.
We look for ways to let you spend less time dealing with your finances, and more time enjoying what they can do for you. Our goal: Provide innovative, simple choices to help smart, successful people achieve more.

 

First, you’ll see it in our branches.
You won’t find the traditional wall of teller windows and cubicles.  Instead, we have an open, friendly environment.  Café style seating.  Wireless Internet hotspots.  Gourmet coffee.  Great Music.  And our employees use wireless tablet PCs, so they can sit down with you wherever you’re comfortable to take care of your financial business.  We line up for you – now there’s a twist on traditional banking.

 

Experience AMPLIFY with convenience.
Most people think you have to go to a big bank to get more convenience.  But does your bank offer all this?

• More than 200 free ATMS in the Austin area, and more on the way. 
• Instant Deposit Online - Deposit checks from any PC or web-enabled cell phone.
• Mobile banking on your web-enabled cell phone for quick online banking, or to locate ATMS and branches when you’re out and about. 
• You can apply for any account online and even fund your new account without ever having to visit a branch.
• State-of-the art online banking and bill pay services 
• Set up e-mail alerts that keep you on top of your finances. 
• Use any of 12 local shared branch locations, as well as our own five branches.  We also have more than 2,400 shared branch locations available for you nationwide. 

You’ll see it in the way you’re served.
At AMPLIFY, we treat you like you own the place because, in fact, you do.  When you open your first AMPLIFY account, you become part owner of a financial cooperative with more than $400 million in assets.  Like the more than 40,000 others who belong to AMPLIFY, your funds are put to work solely to generate earnings and benefits for you, not for outside investors or shareholders.  That means you get better rates, fewer fees, and more flexibility and responsiveness.

 

Experience Amplify with knowledge. 
Ever wish you knew then what you know now about handling your finances?  Or maybe you just wish you felt a little better informed.  AMPLIFY has the information you’re looking for.  Our staff can tell you most anything you may want to know about handling personal finance.  We also hold regular workshops, and we provide no-obligation meetings with our financial planning pros.  We have useful articles on our website, in our newsletter and other printed materials at our branches, too. We can even provide a free credit analysis for you.
