Atlanta Postal Credit Union (APCU) is a credit union based in Atlanta, Georgia, that was founded in 1925. It is Georgia's oldest credit union, and was originally established to serve postal carriers of the state. APCU is the fourth largest credit union in Georgia with over 113,000 members and assets of 2.12 billion as of March 2018. They operate 6 branch locations in Georgia.
