Time to "Re-Register" for Online/Mobile Banking!

Our System Upgrade is now complete. All Members need to "Re-Register" for Online and/or Mobile Banking. While taxing, this is designed in the best interest for Member security.

To “Register,” go through the process by clicking on “Register” from the “Login” screen and answer the questions as they pertain to you individually.

- From a desktop device, go to www.SierraCentral.com and select “LOGIN” located at the top right in the navy-blue bar.
- From a mobile device, click on the Sierra Central Credit Union app, click on the “Register” icon which is located on the bottom left of your screen.

Please review and accept the terms and conditions of the SCCU Online Banking and Bill Payer Electronic Fund Transfer Disclosure and Agreement. Members need to answer the security questions asked, as they pertain to themselves, as an individual. If all the questions are answered correctly, the system will take you to the next step of verification. If you are unable to answer the questions, the system will inform you that the process has failed and that you will need to contact our Call Center (1-800-222-7228) for further assistance.

After a successful “Register” process has been completed, you will be able to select a new Username and Password.

Service Updates

Sierra Central ATM’s are available for use! ATM Deposits made, will be available after the Upgrade is complete. The ability to check account balances at the ATM or on your ATM receipts, will not be available until after the Upgrade.

Co-Op Network ATM’s are available for use!

Electronic Banking Services (Online Banking, Mobile Banking, Bill Payer, Zelle and Bank-by-Phone) are available for use. Members need to first "Re-Register" for Online Banking, as soon as possible, to have access to Bill Pay details and to ensure they have properly updated as well as to make sure payments continue as scheduled.

If you are a current Bill Pay user, after you "re-register" for Online and/or Mobile Banking, you should have immediate access to your Bill Pay details. We do ask that you please verify your Bill Pay transactions to ensure the details are correct.

If you had Recurring Transfers set up, both internal, external or via Zelle, you will need to re-establish transfers and any alerts that may have been set up. Please re-establish these transfers, after you “re-register” for Online and/or Mobile Banking.

Credit Card account holders should have received "New" Sierra Central Visa Credit Cards by now. It is now time to active your "New" Sierra Central Credit Card and discontinue using your "Old" credit card, effective (10/10/22) please.

Please remember to register your "New" Credit Card in CardValet. You can download the CardValet app today in the Android App on Google Play or in the Apple Store. Please note, current credit card details are not visible in Online Banking. Details will be updated as soon as possible. We apologize for the inconvenience and hope to have the Credit Card information updated in your Online Banking Account soon.

Changes to Note!

New Account Numbers
Members will be receiving new Account Numbers. You will be able to locate your new account number(s) on statements or once you have "Re-Registered" in Online and/or Mobile Banking you can view your "New" full Account Number by clicking on each Account, then under the account "Details" link, please click on “Show Full Account Number."

Your Checking Account number will remain the same and is located on your printed checks including the check digit. If you have used this number, prior to setting up any payments or deposits, no action is needed on your part. While we will continue to honor deposits, withdrawals and payments made using any of your current account numbers, we do encourage you to eventually update your new account numbers with your other financial services and/or payment/deposit providers.

Scheduled Payment Transfers

Scheduled payment transfers changed to processing on the payment due date only for the payment due amounts. If this affects you, you can set up your payments and transfers through Sierra Central Online Banking. Our Online Banking service will provide you with better management of your accounts and the ability to set up, schedule, or make changes to payments and transfers at your convenience from anywhere by logging into your Online Banking.

Some statements will include transaction history through October 10, 2022 and other statements will include transaction history beginning on October 11, 2022.
