Think about how you’re going to pay for your big day

ORGANISING your big day takes time and great organisational skills. At Tralee Credit Union we believe it’s also important to put some time into planning how you are going to pay for the day itself. Fret not, Tralee Credit Union, with offices in Castleisland and Killorglin, are on hand to help financially. The first thing is to open a credit union account if you don’t have one opened already.

If you plan on saving for your wedding you can set up a Direct Debit and have regular savings electronically going into your account. You can also electronically transfer funds online as and when you need to, so you don’t need to physically visit the credit union to make a lodgement or withdraw fund you can access your account online using our online and mobile banking services, handy for couples living outside the county or abroad. With your credit union, your savings are eligible for a Dividend and free Life Insurance cover, so you are making your savings work for you…and providing you with ‘one hell of a do’!

If you need to borrow, we can help with that too, especially if you have cousins coming out of the woodwork. Not only are our rates competitive but we have just introduced a new low rate on loans from €15,000 upwards but you’ll also find our loans very flexible and our repayment options are tailored to suit your budget. You don’t have to draw down your loan all at once, you can draw it down in small amounts as and when you need to, so you’ll pay less interest.

You can use the loan as a “bridging Loan” and repay your loan in the weeks and months after your wedding. The significant benefit to a Credit Union loan is that you can repay your loan early or make lump sum payments anytime without penalty. There are no fees and charges, and your loan is also insured with free life cover. So for couples planning their Wedding Day, it’s well worth speaking to your credit union and let them help you financially plan your wedding day.
