- Official name
- Altura Credit Union (Altura Federal Credit Union)
- Charter / type
- Federally chartered credit union (Charter No. 24969 cited in bylaws). NCUA share insurance language published on Altura membership materials. Confirm via NCUA locator.
- Field of membership (summary)
- Published on Altura’s Become a Member page: anyone who lives, works, worships, attends school, or any businesses and other non-individual entities located in Riverside County. Immediate family of an existing Altura Member is also eligible. CDFI / about materials also reference U.S. military, government, and civilian personnel at March Air Reserve Base and retirees of the U.S. Armed Forces as published paths — treat the Riverside County community language as the primary Easy path for most IE residents.
- Join steps (as published)
- Confirm Riverside County live/work/worship/school (or family / March ARB path as published). Start the online application on alturacu.com or visit a branch. Have government ID and SSN ready; electronic funding required for online apps per Altura.
- Fees (only if published)
- Bylaws: par value of each share is $5; accompanying membership fee of $5. Regular share savings / checking opening deposits: confirm current product pages (older brochure materials cite different checking mins.).
- ATM / network notes
- Published marketing: free ATMs nationwide / 30,000+ fee-free ATMs — confirm network branding and fees on alturacu.com.
- Branches serving Inland Empire
- Riverside County–headquartered with multiple Inland Empire branches — use alturacu.com locator. San Bernardino County is not on the published Riverside community FOM — SB residents need family / other published path or another CU.
- Caveats
- Riverside County community path — not San Bernardino County on the Become a Member page reviewed. Brand history mentions past multi-county expansion; cite the current membership page, not older brand stories. CIP applies.
- Join difficulty rationale
- Easy — published Riverside County live/work/worship/school community path — Easy for Riverside side of the IE, with an honest San Bernardino exclusion caveat.

Not a guarantee: Meeting the published field of membership does not mean you will be approved. Credit unions still run identity checks (CIP) and their own account rules.
