About Transave
As a not-for-profit financial co-operative, we focus solely on our members because we don’t have shareholders to answer to. That’s the credit union difference and here’s how we do it.

- Regulated by the FCA
and PRA
Helping to meet your financial goals
We don’t bombard you with marketing offers or get involved in risky business practices. Instead, any operating surplus we make is returned to you, the member through competitive savings and loans rates. And our services are free, with no hidden costs and charges in the small print.
A digital experience with human support
Our online account and app allows you to manage your money on the go when it’s most convenient for you. Alternatively, if you need to talk to a human, our experienced customer service team is just a phone call or message away.
Our History
Transave was founded in 1996 by worker directors of Mainline Group, a passenger transport operator in South Yorkshire. Our ‘common bond’ which governs who is eligible to join Transave was originally limited to the passenger transport sector but has been expanded over time to include the majority of the UK’s working population. Transave is now one of the largest credit unions in the UK with over 30,000 members.
