ADA launches ADA Credit Union
Financial resource is in partnership with BCU
The American Dental Association announced the launch of ADA Credit Union — a new financial resource created in collaboration with BCU, an award-winning, member-owned credit union.
ADACU offers financial services, including checking and savings accounts, certificates of deposit, auto loans and personalized financial coaching — all designed with the unique needs of the dental community in mind.
“This initiative marks a major step forward in supporting the financial well-being of ADA member dentists, their teams, dental students, ADA staff, and their extended families,” said ADA President Brett Kessler, D.D.S. “Just as the ADA is member-driven, so too is ADA CU — a credit union built by and for our community.”
To further support dental students and early-career professionals, ADA CU is launching the DentaFlex Personal Line of Credit. This flexible bridge loan is tailored for third- and fourth-year dental students and those in residency programs, offering interest-only payments to ease the burden of expenses like board exams, application fees, unexpected emergencies and rising living costs.
“We’re honored to partner with the ADA,” said BCU President and CEO Mike Valentine. “Our not-for-profit model and long history of creating extraordinary banking experiences for large organizations make us uniquely suited to deliver lasting value to the dental community.”
ADA CU officially launches on Oct. 23 at SmileCon in Washington, D.C. To learn more or join, visit ADAcu.org.
