Frequently Asked Questions


  • How do I apply?

    At the time of application, you’ll be asked for the following information:

    • Name and address
    • Date of Birth
    • Social Security Number (Consumers)/Tax Identity Number (Businesses)
    • Member number (or membership eligibility)
    • Income and Employment
    • Co-signer or co-borrower information, if applicable

    *Note: A credit report is required to complete an application. By submitting an application, you are voluntarily agreeing to a credit report inquiry.

  • What is the difference between a co-borrower and a co-signer?

    A co-borrower is considered a joint applicant. This person shares household expenses and income with the primary borrower and agrees to be equally responsible for repayment of the loan. As a result, both applicants’ income and credit profiles are used to support approval of the loan. A co-borrower must be an active BCU member.

    A co-signer is also responsible for repayment of the loan in the event the primary borrower defaults on repayment of the agreed loan terms. However, the loan terms are determined solely by the primary borrower’s qualifications.



  • How much would I be approved for?

    Since all approvals are based on variables within each applicant scenario, a loan application must be submitted for underwriter review to determine an accurate approval amount. This is based on a few variables, including, but not limited to, your credit history, income, debt ratio, the loan type, and the value of the vehicle relative to the amount of the loan (Loan-to-Value).

  • How are interest rates determined?

    At BCU, rates are determined using several variables, including, but not limited to: 

    • Your Credit Score
    • Value of the vehicle relative to the amount of the loan
    • Age and type of the vehicle being financed
    • Term
    • Payment method
    • Rewards Member status
    • Use of Auto Buying Service (purchases only)

    For a summary of our loan rates, please visit our Rates page.

    *Note: Interest rates are subject to change.

  • What are Rewards Rates?

    Rewards Rates let you earn more on your deposits and/or save more on your loans. To qualify for a 1.00% Rewards Member rate discount on your auto loan, you must have two of the following relationships:

    a. Direct Deposit of at least $1,000 per month into a checking account at the Credit Union
    b. At least $25,000 on deposit
    c. A qualifying loan in good standing, including: Mortgage, Home Equity, Auto, or Credit Cards. A qualifying loan must have a current balance and credit cards must have a transaction within the past 30 days. Any Credit Union loan that is not in good standing or is delinquent will disqualify you for Rewards Rates.

  • What are the guidelines?

    The vehicle being financed must be within 10 model years, and/or 125,000 miles or less to be considered for financing (exceptions may be considered on a case-by-case basis). If you are uncertain whether your vehicle falls within these guidelines, please contact us with the specific VIN and mileage.

  • What are the available loan terms?

    BCU offers a wide range of loan repayment options with terms up to 75 months (up to 84 months for brand new vehicles). You will be assigned a loan associate who will work with you to find the right repayment option for your needs.

  • What is Loan-to-Value?

    Loan-to-Value refers to the amount of the loan in relation to the retail value of the vehicle being financed.

    Example 1: A vehicle with a retail value of $10,000.00, and a loan amount of $9,000.00 has a 90% loan-to-value
    Example 2: A vehicle with a retail value of $10,000.00, and a loan amount of $11,000.00 has a 110% loan-to-value

  • Are there any fees?

    Yes, depending on whether the vehicle is a purchase or refinance. For purchases, please contact a loan associate for more information, as fee amounts can vary by state. There is no fee for vehicle refinances.

  • Am I able to purchase a salvaged title/dealer buy back?

    Yes! Salvaged title/dealer buy back are case by case and collateral will need to be reviewed for approval. You will be asked to provide proof of insurance prior to funding loan. These vehicles are not eligible for GAP or Extended Warranties through BCU.
