Financing your next adventure.
Global Credit Union provides auto loan solutions for new and used vehicles, along with refinancing options. We offer competitive rates and flexible terms, supported by helpful tools like loan calculators, to make car financing straightforward for our members.
When you're ready to purchase a vehicle, Global Credit Union offers tailored auto loan solutions whether you're buying new or used. We understand that a vehicle is a significant investment, and our goal is to provide financing that aligns with your financial situation. Our new car loans feature competitive annual percentage rates (APRs) and flexible repayment schedules, designed to make your dream car an affordable reality. We work with you to understand your budget and identify the best loan terms.
For those considering a used vehicle, Global Credit Union provides equally attractive options. Our used car loans are structured to offer affordability and peace of mind. We finance a wide range of used vehicles, often considering factors like vehicle age and mileage to ensure the loan terms are appropriate. This approach helps members secure reliable transportation without overextending their finances. We encourage members to get pre-approved, which strengthens their negotiating position at the dealership and provides a clear understanding of their borrowing capacity.
Understanding the total cost of ownership is crucial. Our loan specialists can guide you through the details, including interest rates, loan terms, and any associated fees. We aim for complete transparency so you can make an informed decision about your auto financing.

Many drivers are paying more than they need to on their existing auto loans. Global Credit Union offers a straightforward auto loan refinancing program designed to potentially lower your monthly payments, reduce your interest rate, or shorten your loan term. If your credit score has improved since you first financed your vehicle, or if interest rates have dropped, refinancing could be a smart financial move. We evaluate your current loan and financial standing to determine the best refinancing options available.
The process for refinancing with Global Credit Union is simple. You'll provide details about your current vehicle and loan, and our team will quickly assess how much you could save. We aim to make the transition as smooth as possible, handling much of the paperwork to switch your loan over. Our refinancing options are available for a variety of vehicle types and ages, ensuring that many members can benefit from potentially better terms.
Applying for an auto loan with Global Credit Union is designed to be a clear and efficient process. We understand that your time is valuable, and we strive to provide quick decisions so you can proceed with your vehicle purchase. Our application can be completed online, by phone, or in person at any of our branch locations. We'll ask for some basic personal and financial information, including your income, employment history, and details about the vehicle you intend to purchase or refinance.
