Routing number 253175643 is the official 9-digit ABA routing number registered to MEMBERS CREDIT UNION at 2098 FRONTIS PLAZA BLVD, WINSTON SALEM, NC 27103. It is registered with the American Bankers Association and the Federal Reserve E-Payments Routing Directory.

How to Read Routing Number 253175643
The 9-digit number 253175643 is structured in three segments: 2531 is the Federal Reserve routing symbol — the first two digits identify the Federal Reserve district and the next two identify the specific Federal Reserve processing office handling MEMBERS CREDIT UNION's transactions. 7564 is the ABA institution identifier — four digits assigned by the American Bankers Association uniquely to MEMBERS CREDIT UNION. 3 is the check digit — a single digit calculated from the first eight digits using a weighted sum formula (3-7-1 multipliers). Payment processing systems run this calculation in real time to catch routing number entry errors before any funds move.
