We can give you the peace of mind you deserve without the hassle and expense of going through the dealership.


Guaranteed Asset Protection (GAP)

GUARANTEED ASSET PROTECTION (GAP)?

When you buy a new or used vehicle, there’s no way to know if it will be stolen or totaled in an accident. And, many times, primary auto insurance settlements don’t pay off your loan balance. With the purchase of GAP, you’re helping to protect your vehicle investment against a possible financial loss.

HOW DOES GAP WORK?

The GAP fee can be included with your monthly payments or made separately by cash, check, charge, or possibly electronic funds transfer. If your car is stolen or totaled in an accident and there’s a difference between what you owe on your auto loan and the value of your vehicle, GAP will help cancel the difference based on the terms of your member agreement. By adding GAP while signing your loan paperwork, you’re helping take responsibility for your financial future. Your loan officer can show you how. You may cancel GAP at any time after your enrollment date. If you cancel within 90 days, you’ll receive a full refund. If you have questions, simply contact your credit union.

WHY IS IT VALUABLE?

Vehicles often depreciate rapidly, and vehicle loan terms have typically been increasing in duration. GAP will help cancel the difference between the primary insurance settlement and what you may still owe on your vehicle loan. In addition, if your vehicle is stolen or totaled in an accident, it will cancel $1,000 of your next loan with your credit union when you purchase a replacement vehicle within 60 days of your primary insurance settlement. GAP helps you prepare for the unexpected.

WHAT IS DEPRECIATION PROTECTION DPW?

Depreciation Protection kicks in if your vehicle is ever totaled or stolen and not recovered at any time over the life of the loan.

The waiver benefit is equal to the difference between your vehicle’s MSRP or retail value at the time of DPW purchase, less the amount of your loan balance at the time of total loss. (The benefit cannot exceed the DPW addendum limit or your outstanding loan balance at the time of total loss.)

Member’s Choice Credit Disability and Credit Life Insurance

WHAT IS MEMBER’S CHOICE® CREDIT LIFE INSURANCE?

It’s a way to help protect your loan. There’s no way to predict an injury, illness or unexpected death, but you can take steps along the way to make sure your family is provided for if the unexpected were to happen to you. Credit Disability and Credit Life Insurance may help to make your loan payment to make life easier for you and your loved ones.*

HOW DOES IT WORK?

The premium may be included with your monthly payment. If you have a balance on your loan and are totally disabled due to a covered injury or illness, or in the event of your unexpected death, Credit Disability and Credit Life Insurance may help cover your loan payment.*

By taking a few simple steps while signing your loan paperwork, you’re helping take responsibility for your family’s financial future.

You can cancel coverage at any time if you change your mind. If coverage is canceled within the first 30 days, you will receive a full refund if the premium has been paid. Coverage is immediate for eligible borrowers.

WHY IS IT VALUABLE?

Credit Disability and Credit Life Insurance work in two different ways. You and your family may not have to make loan payments if you’re totally disabled due to a covered injury or illness. It may help pay your loan until you’re no longer totally disabled, or in the event of your unexpected death, it may help pay off the loan.* Savings, salary, or payoffs from other insurance may be used for other important things, giving your family financial freedom when they need it most.

* Up to your policy maximums; per terms and conditions and exclusions on your Credit Insurance Certificate.
