To become a member, you will need to fill out a membership form, produce acceptable I.D. that has been verified by a third party, and pay $10 for your share of TMCU. To submit your membership application, you can either bring your documents to the TMCU office, post them or fax them.

Transport Mutual Credit Union offers you the option of making weekly, fortnightly or monthly payments on your home loan. As with most banks, interest is calculated daily on your remaining principal; this means that any payment you make before your monthly due date will reduce your principal, and thus reduce the amount of interest you have to pay.

Transport Mutual Credit Union allows extra repayments on its variable interest home loans. You can also make lump sum repayments at any time, and any extra payments are available for redraw (withdrawal from your loan) at no cost if you change your mind. Terms and conditions apply; contact your lender for details.

Find out how making extra repayments could save money in interest over the life of your loan in this article or use our Extra Repayments Calculator for yourself:

Yes, Transport Mutual Credit Union’s variable rate home loans offer a redraw facility. Redraw is free, and the minimum withdrawal amount ranges from $100 to $1,000, depending on your loan. Fees and charges may apply to use of a redraw facility; contact your lender for details or learn more about redraw facilities here.

Transport Mutual Credit Union is an Australian credit union based in Sydney, serving customers around the nation. It was founded in 1964 by and for employees of the Roads and Traffic Authority (RTA), who initially named it the Main Roads Staff Credit Union. The credit union changed its name to the RTA Staff Credit Union in 1989, before transitioning to its current name in 2011, with both rebrands prompted by changes to the name and structure of the New South Wales government’s transport department.

Initially founded to serve the aforementioned employees of the NSW government transport department, including rail, bus and ferry employees, membership to Transport Mutual Credit Union is now open to all Australians regardless of job or background. Becoming a member of Transport Mutual Credit Union costs just $10, with all profits being channelled back into the union’s products and services.

Certain Transport Mutual Credit Union home loans received a 5-Star Rating from Canstar in our March 2017 Star Ratings; see our home loans comparison pages for details.
