We Florida Financial is proud to be recognized by Forbes on its 2025 list of America’s best in-state credit unions. This year’s list places We Florida Financial as the #2 in-state credit union in Florida overall, and as the #1 in-state credit union serving South Florida, Central Florida, and Northeast Florida.

The eighth annual list of best-in-state credit unions was created with the help of market research firm Statista, which surveyed approximately 26,000 U.S. residents. Respondents were asked how satisfied they were and how likely they were to recommend credit unions at which they have a checking or savings account, those at which they had an account within the last three years, and those they knew through friends and family. Participants were also asked to rate their financial institutions on factors including trust, customer service, digital tools, the quality of financial advice given and whether fees were transparent and reasonable.

“We are honored to be at the top of Forbes’ list of Florida’s best credit unions,” said William Spearman, CEO of We Florida Financial. “This reflects our team members’ hard work and dedication to putting our members’ needs first, providing the accounts, loans and technology to improve our members’ financial wellbeing.”

We Florida Financial offers its members the same convenience services as large regional banks, including mobile banking, live chat, and remote deposit. Decision-making is 100% local, with financial products and services created to meet the needs of Florida residents and businesses.

We Florida Financial was started in 1952 by employees of the City of Fort Lauderdale. Over the years the credit union expanded to serve employees of Broward County, all 31 Broward County municipalities, and Broward Sheriff’s Office. Membership is open to residents and businesses in 46 Florida counties from Jacksonville to Tampa to Key West.

We Florida Financial has six branches in Broward and Miami-Dade Counties, including Fort Lauderdale, Pembroke Pines, Lauderhill, Margate, Sunrise and North Miami. In addition, members can use over 5,000 branches nationwide as part of the credit union shared branch network. Visit https://wefloridafinancial.com/ for hours and information.

Unlike banks, which are for-profit institutions owned by shareholders, credit unions are not-for-profit financial cooperatives that are owned and run by community members.

We Florida Financial did not pay a fee to participate or be selected as a 2025 top Florida credit union. For more information on the selection process, visit https://forbes.com/lists/best-in-state-credit-unions.
