Find the Right Insurance Coverage for What Matters

EmailsNewsletter Size (73)

Insurance is an important part of protecting your finances and the things that matter most. Through our partner Campio powered by Acrisure®, you can explore coverage options for your home, auto, life and more.

 

When reviewing your insurance, consider:

  • Coverage needs: Make sure your policies provide enough protection for your home, vehicle, family and other assets.
  • Life changes: Buying a home, getting married, having a child or purchasing a new vehicle can all be good reasons to review your coverage.
  • Your deductible: A higher deductible may lower your premium, but make sure you could comfortably cover it if you need to file a claim.
  • Your rates: Insurance costs can change over time, so it may be worth comparing your options to make sure you’re getting coverage that fits your budget.
  • Bundling options: Combining certain policies may help simplify your coverage and could offer savings.

Protect what matters most. Take a few minutes to review your coverage and see if your insurance still fits your needs. Get a quote today from Campio and explore coverage options for your home, auto, life and more.

Member Spotlight: Jenney S., Member Since 2001

EmailsNewsletter Size (74)

Jenney has been a proud Create Credit Union member for more than 25 years. She first joined while working as a Public Information Officer for Clark County, where she was introduced to the credit union as a municipal employee. After living in Clark County for nearly 30 years, Jenney now serves as the Chief Executive Officer of the Pahrump Valley Chamber of Commerce.

 

 When asked how Create Credit Union has helped her reach her financial goals, Jenney shared, “Create Credit Union has financed my last five vehicles and even helped me through its Auto Broker service (MABS), where I received the ‘red carpet’ treatment while they located and transported the exact vehicle I wanted. It was an excellent experience!” 

 

She also looks forward to sharing the benefits of membership with the next generation by opening a joint account for her granddaughter as she begins college this Fall. “I am helping to ‘create’ a new generation of CCU fans!”

 

When asked what sets Create Credit Union apart, Jenney said, “The excellent interest rates and fees, ease of service, user-friendly app, and outstanding customer service make all the difference. I would never go back to a traditional bank after the excellent years of service I've received from Create Credit Union.”

 

She added that she's especially excited to recommend Create as it expands into Nye County and the Pahrump Valley, with a branch opening on September 28. Thank you, Jenney, for being such a loyal and valued member of Create Credit Union!

Helping Your Child Establish Credit: A Parent’s Guide

EmailsNewsletter Size (75)

As parents, we teach our children important life skills. One skill that is often overlooked is how to build and maintain good credit. Establishing healthy credit habits early can help young adults qualify for apartments, auto loans, and lower interest rates in the future.

 

Start with Financial Education


Before focusing on credit scores, focus on financial habits and teach age-appropriate lessons about:


•    Saving for goals
•    Budgeting and spending wisely
•    The difference between needs and wants
•    Delayed gratification
•    Borrowing and repayment


As they get older, introduce concepts such as credit cards, interest rates, loans, and credit scores. Help them understand that credit is borrowed money that must be repaid.

 

Encourage Responsible Credit Habits 


Discuss some best practices for using credit cards:


•    Make small, manageable purchases.
•    Pay balances in full whenever possible.
•    Track spending regularly.
•    Review statements with you.
•    Understand how interest charges work.

 

Help Them Build Credit


Good starter options include:


•    Secured Credit Cards: Require a refundable security deposit. 
•    Co-sign for a credit card or personal loan: When appropriate and able.
•    Credit Builder Loans: These can establish payment history while encouraging savings.


Teach the Keys to Maintain Good Credit 


•    Pay Bills on Time
•    Keep Balances Low
•    Apply for Credit Sparingly
•    Monitor Credit Reports

 

Focus on Long-Term Success


Young adults may not immediately recognize how credit affects their future. Help them understand that responsible credit management today can lead to:


•    Lower borrowing costs
•    Better loan rates
•    Easier approval for housing
•    Greater financial flexibility
•    Increased financial confidence


Ultimately, the goal is not simply to help your child earn a credit score. It is to help them develop healthy financial habits that will benefit them for a lifetime.

 

By combining financial education, responsible credit-building strategies, and ongoing guidance, parents can give their children a valuable head start toward financial success.
