Seven Maine credit unions have earned national recognition after being named to Forbes’ America’s Best-In-State Credit Unions 2026 rankings. The annual list highlights financial institutions that excel in member satisfaction, trust, customer service, digital services, financial advice, and fee transparency.
This year’s Maine rankings include:
- Maine Savings FCU
- Evergreen CU
- PeoplesChoice CU
- Bangor FCU
- Atlantic FCU
- cPort CU
- Midcoast FCU
Also recognized in Forbes’ 2026 Best-in-State rankings were two of the League’s associate member credit unions in New Hampshire. HRCU earned the state’s top ranking, while Lighthouse CU was ranked at number three.
Produced in partnership with market research firm Statista, the rankings are based on feedback from approximately 26,000 U.S. consumers and an analysis of more than 1.2 million publicly available online reviews. Survey responses accounted for 80 percent of each institution’s overall score, while online reviews made up the remaining 20 percent.
Together, these credit unions exemplify the cooperative principles and member-first philosophy that continue to distinguish the credit union movement. Their commitment to providing outstanding service and helping members achieve financial success reflects the positive impact credit unions make in communities across the state and throughout New England.
Congratulations to each honoree on this well-deserved national distinction!
