History
Mountain America Credit Union â€" A New Banking Experience - Mountain America Credit Union, located in Salt Lake City, Utah, wanted to increase traffic into their branches and to create an environment and that enhanced the relationship with the branch...
Due to a hostile environment created by Utah lawmakers, namely a 5% proposed tax on the 3 largest credit unions in Utah, Mountain America converted from a state chartered to a federally chartered credit union in 2003, becoming Mountain America Federal Credit Union. Mountain America's membership is open to residents of Salt Lake, Duchesne, Wasatch, and Uintah counties and their families as well as members of affiliated associations and employees of select employee groups. Some of their Select Employer Group (SEG) affiliations include some of the world's largest companies and associations, including Marriott International, the National Consumer Council, and Walmart.
Mountain America donated $25,000 through the World Council of Credit Unions to fund relief efforts in Peru after the 2007 earthquake there.
