METRO MONEYWISE

Metro Moneywise is a member-owned credit union that helps you take control of your finances – whether consolidating existing debt at affordable rates (with repayments via direct debit), or by building a savings pot for future plans. When you save with Metro Moneywise, your money also helps support other members across Greater Manchester.

Founded in 1990 and based in Rochdale, Metro Moneywise Credit Union is an employee-based organisation. It is fully regulated, and all savings and loans are protected, giving you complete peace of mind. To join, there’s a one-off annual fee of £3.50 paid directly to Metro Moneywise. Household members aged 16 or over are also eligible to join. If you would like to access this fantastic offering, then please click here to join.

Members feedback

Shelby Lloyd, a Metro Moneywise Credit Union member through our ICP partnership, works at Stonefield Surgery in Rochdale and recently won the £5,000 monthly Prize Linked Savings draw -showcasing one of the many benefits of credit union membership.

She said: “It was my 30th birthday yesterday so this is a very welcome present. I’m also 13 weeks pregnant so this money will make such a difference! I’m so appreciative to you all, thanks again!”

Need a helping hand this Christmas? You can apply for a low interest Christmas loan from £100 to £1000 with Metro Moneywise Credit Union (2025 Christmas loan – DD). You will need to become a member and save a minimum of £5 per month to be able to apply. Find out more here.

It is open to all health and social care staff under the GM ICP banner. If you want to join, you will need to select ‘NHS GM ICP’ to be able to join the union under a Direct Debit arrangement to access savings and loans to help with Debt consolidation. You will have to provide a payroll number, but there is no further involvement of the ICP or employer as the arrangement is between the individual and the credit union.
