Most of our lobbies are now open for teller transactions with no appointments required for one-on-one banker services. To avoid long wait times, we still recommend that members schedule an appointment online when meeting with a banker. Our Wayside branch will be closed at noon on Tuesday, January 19th, 2021 due to a water leak. Wayside will resume regular business hours on Wednesday, January 20th. Our VA branch will remain closed until further notice.
Direct deposit stimulus payments were posted to member accounts starting on January 4th and will continue to post as they are received by the IRS. For the most accurate information on your stimulus payment, please use the Get My Payment tool on the IRS website.
Hours of Operation:
Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday: 9 - 5 pm
Wednesday and Saturday: 9 - 2 pm
Please see the chart below to view current services available by branch location.
As many of our competitors and major banks are closing branch locations, we are doing everything possible to stay open and provide personalized service for members throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. The health and safety of our members and employees will always be our priority. We ask that you use mobile and online banking whenever possible for your banking needs and pay close attention to these new guidelines when visiting a branch:
• Between 5-8 members will be allowed inside branch lobbies at a time depending on the branch size and at the discretion of branch management.
• Masks are required for all lobby visitors.
• Teller services are now available in the lobby at select branches
For ways to do your banking outside of the branch, please visit our COVID-19 Banking Services page. Please visit cufriendly.net for your nearest fee-free ATM outside of a branch.

Hello Smart Financial Family:
I wanted to get an update out to you, our members, concerning the effects of COVID-19 has had, and will continue to have, on our day to day interactions. Safety for our employees and members remains at the top of my list. As you have seen over the last few months, our dedicated team has given you our best effort to minimize disruptions of our services. We know it has been tough on everyone, including our employees and their families. I want you all to know the virus has continued to affect our team too. Even with social distancing, wearing masks, using hand sanitizer, and keeping all facilities clean, this team is at risk. The decisions we have made, and will continue to make, are not easy and I know, not always what you want to hear. We understand that and hope you do to. I want to ensure you that when we are here to assist you, safety is a priority along with satisfying your requests. Please continue to be patient with our incredible employees, as they too are working through these difficult and unforeseen times. Realizing we are one big family will help ease the stress of everyone involved. Growing up, my parents instilled in us to treat people the way you want to be treated. Never has that been more important. I am confident the Smart Financial Family will stay strong and be better because of this trying world we live in. We are honored and blessed to be part of this incredible community.
Stay safe,
Larry Seidl
President & CEO
