BECU has opened a new Eastside Financial Center to serve the Bellevue and greater Eastside area. The new financial center is located at 13000 20th Ave. NE, on the corner of Northeast 20th Street and 130th Avenue Northeast, inside the 520 Plaza.

BECU is a not-for-profit credit union owned by the members.

The new location has approximately 6,000 square feet and three ATMs with 24-hour access. It also features a concierge to help direct service needs. Members can establish accounts, apply for loans and perform financial transactions – including free ATM, Online and Telephone Banking services, with staff assistance, if needed.

The new location also will host free financial seminars on a wide array of topics that will be held on-site in a community space within the location. In addition, members can meet with experts who can help with everything from retirement and estate planning, buying or refinancing a home, or growing their business with BECU Business Services.

“With over 23,000 members in the area, the new financial center was in response to the growing needs of our members on the Eastside,” said Amy Wickholm, BECU’s Eastside Financial Center manager. “As anyone in the state is eligible to join BECU, this will allow us to continue to grow within the Bellevue community while ensuring that we are able to meet the needs of our current members.”

As with BECU’s other financial centers, the new Bellevue location will be staffed from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday and 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday. BECU now has three locations in Bellevue.
