Debt Protection

Play it safe with debt protection

Whether you're taking out a loan to make home improvements or buy a vehicle, it can be a financial gamble because things happen … life happens. Help play it safe with Debt Protection, a voluntary loan-payment protection product. Debt Protection helps you get relief from the financial burden of delinquency, default, or foreclosure if a protected life event unexpectedly happens to you. Simple eligibility requirements help ease the enrollment process.

If a protected life event happens to you (and you're a protected borrower or co-borrower on the loan), Debt Protection will cancel or waive your loan payment(s), up to the contract maximums. Help lessen your worries, and your family's worries, about paying loans during a time when your income may be reduced or lost and paying other household bills becomes challenging. Protected events include:

  • Loss of Life, including those caused by acts of war
  • Disability, including those caused by acts of war
  • Involuntary unemployment

DISCLOSURE

Your purchase of Debt Protection is optional and will not affect your application for credit or the terms of any of any credit agreement required to obtain a loan. Certain eligibility requirements, conditions, and exclusions may apply. Please contact your loan representative, or refer to the Member Agreement for a full explanation of the terms of Debt Protection. You may cancel the protection at any time. If you cancel protection within 30 days, you will receive a full refund of any fee paid.

Guaranteed Asset Protection (GAP)

Guaranteed Asset Protection (GAP) pays the difference between your vehicle insurance company's settlement and the remaining loan amount (directly related to the vehicle purchase), up to the maximums allowed by the credit union and/or state, in the event your vehicle is stolen or damaged beyond repair.
