TEXAR, It's Where Your Friends Are

TEXAR is a community first credit union which has served members in and around the Texarkana area since 1951. Having three offices and employing almost 100 people, today TEXAR serves citizens of Cass, Bowie, Little River, Miller, Red River, and Lamar counties.

Through the years we've had many different names. Our story began as Bowie County Teachers Credit Union. Then in 1964 we became Bowie-Cass Teachers Credit Union and Teachers Federal Credit Union in 1996. Most recently, in 2001, we became TEXAR Federal Credit Union. All the while we have stayed true to our mission: 

“To serve the financial needs of our members”

 As a not for profit financial cooperative, we are always looking for ways to serve our members. At TEXAR, we are continually analyzing every aspect of our business in order to provide the highest possible dividend and the most competitive loan rates. It is particularly rewarding when we can do this by introducing new technology.
