Seattle Metropolitan Credit Union was founded by Seattle municipal employees in 1933 under the name City Credit Union, before taking its current name in 1997. In 2003 the credit union merged with the Teamsters' Credit Union, acquiring $11 million in assets, 3,100 new members, and a single branch location on Seattle's Denny Way. Another merger took place in 2007, with Credit Union Northwest. In 2015, the credit union merged with Northwest Baptist Federal Credit Union.
As of 2015, the chief executive officer of Seattle Credit Union is Richard Romero. In 2016 the company began offering loans for people to submit and maintain their citizenship applications. In 2017 the company dropped the “Metropolitan” from its official name, becoming Seattle Credit Union. At the same time, the company changed its logo and renovated some branches. That year they were also designated a Juntos Avanzamos institution.
