What happens next?
For Louisiana FCU members, it’s business as usual during the transition: account numbers will remain the same, cards and checks will continue to work, direct deposits and payroll will be posted per usual. You’ll continue to receive the same great service you’ve come to expect. We’re working on merging our systems and aim to complete the integration by early 2025. Until then, continue to use Louisiana FCU branches. Once we’re fully integrated, you can conduct business at OnPath branches, giving you even more options across the greater New Orleans area. We’ll keep you updated every step of the way as we work towards bringing our systems and processes together.
Banking at your doorstep.
With this merger comes a significant expansion of our branch and ATM/ITM network, ensuring you have easy and local access to your money.

Being an OnPath CU member allows you the option of covering your share drafts (checks) by an automatic transfer from your Savings Account, Line of Credit (LOC) or Money Master Account. In order for the overdraft protection to work, the funds will need to be available. The transfer of funds from the account or LOC are done automatically. The member is charged a minimal transfer fee. Please keep in mind that Savings accounts are regulated to only allow 6 electronic withdrawals a month.
Some of our Checking Accounts offer Courtesy Pay, a benefit to our members that may protect your account in the event that you are accidentally overdrawn. However, anytime you have non-sufficient funds in your checking account OnPath CU charges a fee.
Establish your OnPath CU membership, then write a check from your account at the other financial institution. Once all your checks from your other account have cleared and you've received your new checks and Visa Debit Card from OnPath CU, close the account at the other financial institution.

There are two types of Debit Card transactions: debit (PIN) and credit (signature). When paying for a purchase, the clerk will ask "debit or credit?" When you reply "debit" to the clerk, it becomes a PIN transaction. You are required to enter your Personal Identification Number (PIN) after the card has been swiped through a point of sale terminal. With PIN transactions, funds are withdrawn from your Checking Account immediately at the time of the transaction. When you reply "credit" to the clerk, it becomes a signature transaction. Signature transactions do not require your PIN but you do sign a slip to accept the transaction. With signature transactions, funds are sometimes held in your Checking Account at the time of purchase until the transactions post to your account in one to three days. Some companies do not hold the funds and will clear the Checking Account within a few days.
The Debit Card has a spending limit of $5,000 per day when used as a debit in stores or online. The spending limit is equal to the available balance in your Checking Account minus outstanding purchases that have not posted, with a daily total of $5,000. The Debit Card has no spending limit per day when used as a credit.
