Trailhead Credit Union is a member-owned financial institution in the banking industry, headquartered at 221 Northwest Second Avenue Suite 100, Portland, Oregon 97209. Founded in 1935 by eleven employees of Portland Gas and Coke who pooled their funds to form a financial cooperative, its purpose was to provide borrowing at reasonable rates to coworkers. As a credit union, profits are returned to members in the form of better rates and lower fees rather than distributed to outside investors. The credit union serves individuals who live, work, or attend school in Multnomah County, Oregon, and emphasizes individualized guidance toward financial success. Recent developments include a strategic partnership with Catalyst Corp to deliver instant and real-time payments and peer-to-peer payments to Trailhead members.
