### 4/5 — Satisfied customer

*2026-06-21, version 2026.01.01*

I’ve been with credit union for a couple years and have never had an issue. My experience has always been pleasant and they have always been more than helpful. So if your thinking of credit union your, I would highly recommend them to anyone who wants a reliable bank.

### 5/5 — Fantastic credit Union

*2024-02-02, version 2023.10.1.4*

Why would you bank anywhere else.. great people, great rates and no big bank fees!

### 5/5 — Convenient

*2023-11-01, version 2023.3.0.1*

Always convenient and useful

### 5/5 — On-line Banking

*2023-01-22, version 2022.9.1.11*

I love the on-line banking.  It is so convenient and I have been a customer with Sacramento credit union for over 24 years.

### 3/5 — Good app

*2022-11-25, version 2022.9.1.11*

Works well but max mobile deposit is too low.

### 5/5 — Serious Issues, can’t move past confirming identity

*2022-03-30, version 2021.11.0.42*

I am not sure what took place in the new update. The request to confirm my identity by text or phone is not working. I cannot login. Reached out for assistance hopefully someone can get this fixed ASAP.

### 3/5 — Love the bank. Not thrilled with the App

*2021-07-07, version 2021.3.0.35*

Can’t pull up my bank statements except on app. Went to the app, can pull them up. But can’t print it! Can’t save because it just ends up as a blank file. Must have a non Apple product to get my bank statements and print them. Never had this issue until the last few months. Not user friendly for Apple users!!

### 5/5 — The CU. Period.

*2021-03-03, version 6.5.5.34*

Our 25 Plus year experience has been outstanding!

### 3/5 — Quick view stopped working

*2020-04-24*

Since you can’t stay logged into the app, which is great for security purposes, the only two things I use the app for are balance quick view without logging in and occasionally logging in for mobile check deposits. The balance quick view stopped working entirely about 2 weeks ago and about a month ago I tried mobile check deposit it worked worse than it did 2-3 years ago. It was very difficult for the camera to capture the check properly, even with good lighting.

### 5/5 — Outstanding App

*2019-10-05, version 6.0.1.26*

Outstanding app very easy to use .

### 5/5 — SactoCU

*2019-06-28, version 5.12.2.25*

I have been a member of this back since 1986 I love this Credit Union

### 5/5 — Local credit union

*2019-03-06, version 5.11.24*

I enjoy having a local credit union. The app does everything I need it for. Periodic text confirmation process assured me it’s secure.

### 4/5 — SactoCu bill pay and alerts

*2019-01-16, version 5.11.24*

1. Bill Pay will not let you adjust or make changes such amount or recurrence period to recurring bills 

2. Text msg alerts use a unique phone number which makes it difficult for customers like me to keep track of all text alerts received from SactoCu. All other non SactoCu institutions uses a single number to send text alerts so customers like me can keep track of all text alerts under a single text message string. 

3. Dash does not show total number of debit card transactions so we have to count every single debit card transaction. 

4. Except for the above 3 items The rest of the app is good.

### 1/5 — Latest update

*2026-07-11, version 2026.4.2.1*

Sadly now since the latest update I have NOT been able to log in and use the app! Texting a one time code and calling does no good! I can’t even check my damn Balance as a result of! More inclined to find another financial institution to bank at as a result

### 1/5 — Right hand doesn’t know what the left hand is doing!

*2026-05-17, version 2026.01.01*

My husband opened our account because one of his customers banks with SactoCU.  The CU harasses my husband every time he goes in to cash a check. The last check he deposited was under $400. It was put on a 14 day hold. The CU has made it clear we need to use a different bank for 99.9 percent of our business. In the future, we will only use them as a check cashing center for the one customer. I highly recommend using any other CU for your financial needs.

### 1/5 — Horrible update

*2025-09-18, version 2025.7.2.2*

Log in page horrible. Looks like a first grade class created it. Bring back back old log in page

### 1/5 — You need to update the app

*2020-07-30, version 6.3.1.31*

You need to update the app, it has been two months since the last one.

### 1/5 — Worst upgrade ever!

*2018-11-16, version 5.10.21*

It worked fine before, first of all, and secondly, how are you gonna upgrade the app and make it completely non accessible? I can’t view my account at all!!! When I was forced to upgrade I was told to use the temporary password that was emailed to me... WHAT EMAIL?!?! Never got it! And when I requested for the temp password to be sent, it never was! Great job upgrading IDIOTS! I’m switching to a new bank just based on this bs. Unbelievable.

### 1/5 — Seriously

*2018-11-08, version 5.10.21*

Won’t let me sign in says I need the temporary password that was shared with me.  Who exactly shared this with me?

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2018-11-06, version 5.10.21*

The app only allows one account number. I have two separate accounts. I used to be able to sign in to either account. Now, it doesn’t give me a choice as to which account I’d like to sign into.

### 2/5 — Review

*2019-09-02, version 6.0.1.26*

The mobile deposit feature is incredibly frustrating. The app won’t capture the back side of the check. As someone who has moved out of Sacramento I rely heavily on the ability to deposit checks remotely. Please work on a solve.

### 2/5 — Slow

*2019-03-21, version 5.11.24*

This app is very slow and needs some improvements. Its very delayed on showing my transactions I often have to drive to an atm just to check my balance !

### 3/5 — Mobile deposit Rating

*2025-01-06, version 2024.10.1.10*

I use this app for mobile deposits. It saves me from going to the bank frequently, however it freezes up and any deposit over $225 money will be withheld for several days

Very useful and convenient when operating correctly.

### 5/5 — Fantastic app

*2025-05-15, version 2025.2.2.3*

Using it for a number of years, and I am extremely satisfied. Has all the major functionality for me to do my banking

### 5/5 — Transfers

*2024-12-10, version 2024.10.1.10*

My son has a SCU checking account. He transferred $215 to my SCU account on a Sunday. The debit immediately reflected on his end but not on my end even on Tuesday. Not good to have to wait for same bank to bank transfers.

### 5/5 — Mobile Banking

*2024-10-25*

Not overly complicated, easy to navigate and use. Wonderful!

### 5/5 — Needs night mode

*2024-03-31, version 2024.1.0.1*

Judging by high star rating, I must be only one upset over lack of night mode 🌃
