History
Formerly Jax Navy Federal Credit Union, VyStar was chartered in 1952 by 12 founding members with $60 at the Naval Air Station Jacksonville to provide civil service and military personnel and their families a safe place to save and borrow money. A year later, 1,100 members had joined. By the end of the decade, membership had grown to 9,178. As membership continued grow, so did Jax Navy Federal as they opened new branches on and off the military base to serve their expanding membership. In 2002, Jax Navy celebrated its 50th anniversary and changed its name to VyStar Credit Union. In 2017, VyStar celebrated its 65th anniversary and continues today its vision to provide a safe place for members to save, borrow and improve their financial well-being.
