During July, RBFCU wanted to make America’s 250th more than a milestone. We helped you make independence a part of your financial future by giving our members more than $586,000 through 2.50% cash-back rewards when you used your RBFCU World Cash Back Mastercard and Business Select Mastercard. And RBFCU branches collected more than 29,000 pounds of non-perishable food items to support our local food banks and food pantries, plus we donated $100,000 to food banks throughout Texas! Thank you for helping RBFCU Go Beyond Banking!

Pause and take time to verify that it really is someone you should trust on the other end of a phone call, text or email when they tell you to pull money out of your account so you can “secure” it. RBFCU will never initiate a call or any other message and ask you to do that, and RBFCU will never ask for your username or password. Contact us – call 210-945-3300 – if you’re unsure.

Ideal for buyers who intend to move, refinance or earn more within a few years, RBFCU’s Adjustable-Rate Mortgage typically starts with a lower interest rate than a conventional fixed-rate mortgage. That can mean a lower payment and more room in your budget. Your rate and payment stay fixed for five years, then may adjust up or down every five years for the life of the loan. With as little as 5% down, it offers flexibility today while keeping future options open. Learn more at rbfcu.org/arm.
