Idaho Central Credit Union

Idaho Central Credit Union was organized in Boise as a state-chartered credit union on June 28, 1940, to serve the financial needs of the officers of other credit unions operating in the state of Idaho. At that time, officers could not belong to the credit union where they worked.

In 1953, Idaho Central changed its field of membership to include all members of other Idaho credit unions, and in 1972 it was increased again to of small groups approved by the Department of Finance, who had a common bond and desired credit union membership, but were unable to form a credit union. In 1977, it expanded to retail employees in Ada, Bannock, Bingham, and Power counties. Persons in Oneida, Bear Lake, Franklin, Caribou, and Twin Falls counties were added to the field of membership in 1984.

The field of membership expanded in 1989 to include non-durable wholesale, service, and manufacturing for all counties and to persons in Jerome, Gooding, Lincoln, Blaine, Minidoka, and Cassia counties, and Jackpot, Nevada. In 2008, the establishment of the organization's Central's Business Lending Department added member eligibility for businesses. The most change came with the merger of PSCU in north Idaho, adding Shoshone and Kootenai counties.

Idaho Central is the largest credit union in the state, with 38 locations in the Treasure Valley, Magic Valley, Eastern Idaho, and Idaho Panhandle.

ICCU's field of membership includes those who reside or work in Ada, Adams, Bannock, Bear Lake, Bingham, Blaine, Boise, Bonneville, Butte, Camas, Canyon, Caribou, Cassia, Clark, Custer, Elmore, Franklin, Fremont, Gem, Gooding, Jefferson, Jerome, Kootenai, Lemhi, Lincoln, Madison, Minidoka, Oneida, Owyhee, Payette, Power, Shoshone, Teton, Twin Falls, Valley, and Washington counties. Also, persons who live or work in, or organizations located within the boundaries of a Washington school district are eligible.

Employees of the State of Idaho, the MPC Corporation, residents of nearby Jackpot, Nevada, and their family members are also eligible for membership.[2]

Idaho Central Credit Union is governed by an elected board of directors. Kent Oram serves as the chief executive officer (CEO), Shelli Bardsley as chief administrative officer (CAO), Brenda Worrell as chief operating officer (COO), Brian Berrett as the chief financial officer (CFO), Mark Willden as chief information officer (CIO), Ed Tierney as chief lending officer (CLO), Corey Dahle as chief experience officer (CXO), and Michael Watson as chief marketing officer (CMO).[3][4]

ICCU is the name sponsor of two sports venues in the state. In 2018, the University of Idaho in Moscow announced that ICCU had acquired the naming rights to a new arena on campus, set to open in November 2021. North of the west end of the Kibbie Dome, the new Idaho Central Credit Union Arena (ICCU Arena) will be the home court of the Vandal basketball teams (men's and women's).[5][6] In September 2020, ICCU announced that it had acquired the naming rights to the former CenturyLink Arena in downtown Boise, which was renamed Idaho Central Arena.[7]
