Welcome TSB Financial members: Learn more about the transition to TSB Financial, a division of Empeople Credit Union. We are excited to serve you!

Welcome to TSB Financial, a division of Empeople Credit Union

Empeople Credit Union has officially acquired TSB Bank.

Empeople Credit Union has officially acquired TSB Bank. As of November 1, 2024, you are now a member of TSB Financial, a division of Empeople Credit Union.

This page contains all the information you need to ensure a smooth transition. We answer frequently asked questions and give you a timeline of what to expect over the next year. We look forward to having you as a member!

Why TSB and Empeople? 

TSB and Empeople are more than just financial institutions, they are pillars of the community. TSB has a rich history of supporting both residents and businesses in Wisconsin for over 100 years. With our history at the John Deere Horicon Works, it’s only fitting that TSB’s path would cross with Empeople’s, which began in 1935 as Deere & Company Credit Union.

Together, as TSB Financial, a division of Empeople Credit Union, we are combining resources to bring members and businesses market-leading rates on savings and loans, one-on-one financial guidance, and a five-star digital banking experience. 

What is the relationship between TSB Financial and Empeople? 

TSB Financial, a division of Empeople Credit Union, is the new name of TSB Bank. Because Empeople is a credit union, TSB can no longer use the word “bank” in its name, and bank customers are now Empeople Credit Union members. You will see the name “TSB Financial” on signage and marketing materials, but account documents will say Empeople Credit Union, per regulatory requirements. 

Information about your accounts

Learn more about how your deposits, loans, and digital banking could be impacted.

Your TSB Bank accounts, account numbers and balances will remain the same.

Effective immediately, you may receive better rates on your savings accounts.

With the conversion to TSB Financial, a division of Empeople Credit Union, every member will have a membership share, also known as a “prime share.” This share account represents your share of ownership in the credit union, and all your other accounts will be tied to this prime share.

If you had a savings account with TSB Bank, it will become your prime share when TSB’s core system merges with Empeople’s core system in the fourth quarter of 2025. At that time, Empeople will fund a $5 deposit into your account. You can continue to add additional funds to your account as desired.

If you do not have a savings account with TSB upon core conversion, we will open a prime share account with Empeople and fund it with $5. You can add to this account if you wish, but you are not required to do so.

Debit cards

Your TSB Bank debit cards will continue to work until our core processing systems are synced in the winter of 2025. You will be notified by email and letter before your new debit cards are sent.

To dispute a transaction on your TSB Bank debit card, call Shazam® at (833) 288-1126.

For questions about your debit card, or to report a lost or stolen card, please call TSB Financial at (920) 269-7777.

Credit cards

Your TSB Bank credit cards will continue to work until they expire. You will be notified by email and letter before your new credit cards are sent.

For questions about your credit card, or to report a lost or stolen card, please call the number on the back of your card.

Your loans will remain at TSB Financial with your current balances, rates and terms. However, loan disclosures will now reference Empeople Credit Union as your servicer. You will continue to make loan payments as you have been until our core processing systems are combined in the fourth quarter of 2025, but payments must now be made out to Empeople Credit Union.

You will receive communication via email when you can make loan payments through the new Empeople Digital Banking app, which will likely occur in late 2025.

Automatic loan payments

Automatic loan payments will continue to process normally until our core processing systems are synced in winter of 2025. We will notify you if automatic loan payments need to be updated.

Home equity loans

TSB Bank home equity loan checks are valid and can continue to be used as normal. Additional checks can be ordered at a TSB Financial branch. New checks, including home equity checks, will say Empeople Credit Union.

Because TSB Financial is a division of Empeople Credit Union, what were previously known as “CDs” (certificates of deposit) will be called “Share Certificates,” per NCUA regulations. If you currently have a certificate with TSB, your current rate will remain the same. When your certificate matures, it will automatically renew for your convenience, and you will receive whatever rate is effective at the time of renewal. If don’t want your certificate to be renewed upon maturity, please visit your local branch, or call us at (920) 269-7777 during normal business hours.

Your TSB Bank checks are still valid.

Business and personal checks can be reordered at your local TSB Financial branch but will be branded as Empeople Credit Union.

The same online and mobile banking will continue to be available to you until our core processing systems are converted in the fourth quarter of 2025. You will soon see the name “TSB Financial, a division of Empeople Credit Union,” in online and mobile banking. Bill payments and recurring payments set up via online and mobile banking will continue to process as normal.

You will continue to receive printed statements, and eStatements will be accessible through TSB Financial online and mobile banking. Your statement will soon say Empeople Credit Union.
