Leaders Credit Union began in 1957 in Jackson, Tennessee as Jackson-Madison County Teachers Credit Union, renamed in 1996 as its field of membership expanded beyond educators. It serves West Tennessee counties and Crittenden County, Arkansas, with about $1.27 billion in assets, 87,000 members, and full consumer banking services.
Leaders Credit Union has come a long way from its start in 1957, when five Jackson, Tennessee teachers pooled five dollars each in a cigar box to launch what was then Jackson-Madison County Teachers Credit Union. Renamed Leaders in 1996 as membership grew beyond educators, it now serves roughly 87,000 members across West Tennessee and into Arkansas. When you bank with Leaders � whether it's a car loan payment, a gift card, or everyday shopping � you can run it through the Fluz app to earn cashback, adding a little extra reward to the banking you're already doing.
