GTE Financial, chartered in 1935 as Peninsular Telephone Employees Credit Union and renamed GTE Federal Credit Union in 1958, is headquartered in Tampa, Florida. It rebranded as GTE Financial in 2012 and serves members throughout the Tampa Bay area with checking, savings, loans, and mortgages, regulated by the NCUA.

GTE Financial has been part of the Tampa Bay community since 1935, when it started as a small credit union for telephone company employees. Nearly 90 years later, it's grown into a full-service, not-for-profit financial institution serving members across the region. Whether you're opening a checking account, financing a car, or making a mortgage or loan payment, GTE Financial keeps things member-focused rather than profit-driven. When you manage your GTE Financial accounts or shop for gift cards through the Fluz app, you can earn cashback and rewards on everyday transactions, adding extra value to banking with a credit union rooted in Tampa for generations.
