Farmers Insurance Federal Credit Union Selects Upstart for Personal Lending

Farmers Insurance Federal Credit Union (FIGFCU), the credit union serving predominantly members of the Farmers Insurance community, today announced its partnership with Upstart (NASDAQ: UPST), the leading artificial intelligence (AI) lending marketplace, to provide personal loans to consumers across the country.

“Farmers Insurance Federal Credit Union is committed to help more people live their best financial lives and provide them greater access to the products and services they need,” said Laura Campbell, CEO of Farmers Insurance Federal Credit Union. “With Upstart, we are able to reach more people outside of our traditional field of membership with a FIGFCU personal loan through a modern, all-digital lending experience.”

Farmers Insurance Federal Credit Union became an Upstart Referral Network lending partner in December 2021. With the Upstart Referral Network, qualified personal loan applicants on Upstart.com who meet FIGFCU’s credit policies will receive tailored offers as they seamlessly transition into a FIGFCU-branded experience to complete the online member application and closing process.

“Our partnership with Farmers Insurance Federal Credit Union provides greater access to affordable credit to more people outside of FIGFCU’s traditional field of membership,” said Michael Lock, SVP of Lending Partnerships for Upstart. “Through the Upstart Referral Network, FIGFCU is able to gain new members while providing personal loans that can improve their financial lives.”
