All About You

From the teller line to the executive team and everyone in between, we are all here to carry out our mission to serve our members’ financial needs. 

Our History

1937

Since being first chartered in 1937, the credit union has grown from $28,000 in assets and 170 members to more than $1.3 billion in assets and over 98,000 members and counting.

1947

The credit union was originally organized as a Pan Am Employees Federal Credit Union, to serve the financial needs of employees of Pan American Refining Corporation of Texas City. In 1947, the credit union expanded for the first time to include employees of Amoco Chemicals in Texas City, an Amoco (Pan American) subsidiary.

1955

In 1955, the credit union changed its name to Amoco Federal Credit Union to correspond with the new name of its sponsor company, Amoco Oil Refinery. Two years later, and twenty years after it was first chartered, Amoco Federal Credit Union claimed $2.6 million in assets and 3,100 members.

1998

In 1998, British Petroleum (BP) and Amoco Oil merged into BP Amoco, and as of 2004, it would be called BP. With that change, Amoco Federal Credit Union made a choice to keep its name the same because it represented stability and familiarity in the community.

2004

The “Amoco” name was changed to represent an acronym, making it AMOCO (A Member Owned Cooperative Organization) Federal Credit Union.

Present

AMOCO is financially strong and recognized as one of the largest credit unions in the Houston/Galveston area, made up of a diversified membership that includes more than 600+ local sponsor companies and organizations and over 100,000 members located throughout the country. Today, AMOCO continues to grow largely due to the satisfaction and loyalty of members and the commitment of our volunteers and staff. Today, AMOCO Federal Credit Union has expanded to serve 2.5 million consumers with a wide geographical footprint, and is open to everyone who lives, works, worships, attends school, or frequently does business within one of the 477-census tracts in Texas.

For over 84 years, AMOCO Federal Credit Union has taken pride in embodying the fundamental philosophy of People Helping People that all credit unions are founded on. We are committed to our mission–“to serve the financial needs of our members” – and making a difference in our local communities.
