Northwest Federal Credit Union to Open 'High-Tech' Branch in Herndon

Northwest Federal Credit Union is opening its first “high-tech” branch Jan. 31 at the Village Center in Herndon.

The new location, located at 2545 Centreville Road, will feature state-of-the-art equipment and interactive displays including:

• The Discovery Zone featuring videos and digital brochures, and a tablet checkout center;
• A WI-FI Bar and hot spot with charging station, Wi-Fi access and boards with news and weather; and
• A product and services wall, where members discover the latest events, promotions, and current savings and loan rates.

Northwest Federal plans to send members an announcement of the new branch as well as information on special events and promotions, including a $25 offer for all new members and those who refer them.

“While our online and mobile banking platforms are popular with many members, along with our extensive ATM network and numerous CU service centers, in-person banking options are still important,” said Northwest Federal President/CEO Chris McDonald. “Given our continued growth throughout Northern Virginia, we decided to expand our branch network to offer members more choice and convenience for their financial needs.”

The new branch will be Northwest Federal’s seventh location. The credit union currently serves more than 125,000 members at locations in Chantilly, Gainesville, Herndon, Leesburg, Manassas and Vienna.
