We're Celebrating a Milestone

Thank you, members, for 70 great years!

Building a Legacy 70-Years Strong

Our MIDFLORIDA family would like to express our deepest appreciation and gratitude to you, our members and the communities in which we serve, for your unwavering support and commitment to our credit union since 1954. Each of you play an integral part of writing our story and building our legacy.

While almost every credit union shares the story of humble beginnings, we are no different. Credit unions started with people pooling their resources together to help one another in times of need.   Thanks to our 11 founding members, we have grown from a basement office in Lakeland’s Junior High School where our first treasurer, Rebecca Keith, worked from a desk and a shoebox, to 62 branches spanning coast to coast.  

All of us here at MIDFLORIDA are proud to be a part of your life story. From helping you finance your homes and cars to making life’s dreams of weddings, vacations, and retirement a reality, we strive to improve everyone’s financial well-being.  We appreciate being involved in  the communities where we have branches and to participate in countless community and charitable events and sponsorships that help make our service areas better places to live and work.  

Rest assured, we appreciate the privilege of being a leader in Florida’s financial services for the past 70 years and to be able to help you with your financial journey. Thank you for making MIDFLORIDA what it is today and what it will become in the future.

  • Arbitration decisions are as enforceable as any court order and are subject to VERY LIMITED REVIEW BY A COURT.
  • ARBITRATORS can award the same REMEDIES including DAMAGES that a COURT can award.
  •  Any ARBITRATION under these Official Rules WILL BE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS. You understand and agree that YOU ARE WAIVING THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE AS A CLASS REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS MEMBER IN A CLASS ACTION.
  •  The PLACE OF ARBITRATION shall be in the federal district WHERE YOU RESIDE.
  • WE WILL REIMBURSE YOU FOR ANY FILING, ADMINISTRATION, AND ARBITRATOR FEES as imposed by the American Arbitration Association. However, if the arbitrator determines that YOUR CLAIM IS FRIVOLOUS, UNWARRANTED, OR BROUGHT FOR AN IMPROPER PURPOSE (in accordance with the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure Section 11(b)) YOU WILL RETURN TO US ANY FILING, ADMINISTRATION, AND ARBITRATOR FEES WE PAID.
  •  If YOU PREVAIL on the merits of your claim in arbitration, WE WILL PAY YOUR ATTORNEYS' FEES. You will NOT be required to pay OUR ATTORNEYS' FEES IF WE PREVAIL.
