About
Personal service, trusted financial support and online access for Members across Dublin 7, 15 & 22.
Phoenix Credit Union is a Member-owned financial co-operative serving communities across Dublin 7, Dublin 15 and Dublin 22. Built on generations of local trust, we exist to help Members save, borrow and manage their finances with confidence through accessible, ethical and community-focused financial services.
Officially launched on 6 October 2026, Phoenix Credit Union represents the coming together of several well-established credit unions with deep roots in their local communities. It combines the proud traditions of Community Credit Union, Blanchardstown & District Credit Union and Rowlagh Credit Union, creating a stronger organisation with a shared commitment to improving the financial wellbeing of Members and supporting local communities.

While our name is new, our purpose remains unchanged. We are owned by our Members, run for their benefit and guided by the values that have defined credit unions for generations. Every decision we make is grounded in the principles of co-operation, trust, fairness and community impact.
Today, Phoenix Credit Union serves Members through offices in West Cabra, Blanchardstown Shopping Centre, Blanchardstown Village and Rowlagh, supported by online and digital banking services. We provide savings accounts, personal loans, mortgages, current accounts and a growing range of financial services designed to meet the changing needs of individuals, families and businesses throughout our communities.
Our name is inspired by the Phoenix Park, which sits at the heart of the communities we serve. It reflects our ambition to build on a strong legacy while looking confidently to the future.
As Phoenix Credit Union grows, our commitment remains the same: to provide trusted financial support, strengthen our communities and help Members achieve better financial outcomes for generations to come.
To help Members save, borrow and plan with confidence, while keeping Member value and community benefit at the centre of every decision.
To be the financial partner Members think of first; trusted for our strength, service and commitment to better outcomes for Members and communities.
Phoenix Credit Union will support Members through life; remain financially strong; increase our reach, build scale and create lasting value for Members and communities.
