Frequently Asked Questions


How do I make a credit card payment?

If you log on to the new site, please scroll to the bottom of the left-hand menu. You will see a link for "Credit Cards." When you click this link, you will be taken to another website. This is perfectly safe. Under "New User" register your 16-digit card number and will verify your identity. Once you are logged in, you will be able to view your statements and transactions.

There are several ways to make your credit card payment. You can mail it to TTCU or you can drop it by a local branch. You can also set up your credit card as a bill pay online. When you log in, please find the “Bill Pay” link on the left-hand menu. This will take you to a new page. You can register your credit card as a bill and set up a payment. We will of course waive any late fees if they occur because of the software upgrade.
