Our goal is to ensure you benefit from our great rates, competitive financial products, expert advice, and personalized service. We will listen to you and work with you to achieve your goals.
Who is eligible for Luminus Membership?

What do you need to get a Luminus Membership?
To join Luminus, you will require two pieces of valid I.D., one of which must be a Government-issued photo I.D.

It represents your democratic right to participate in the annual meeting to elect your Board of Directors and gives you access to all our accounts and services.

- Diversify your portfolio
- Low-risk investment

*Dividends are if, as, and when declared by the Board. Additional shares do not entitle the member to additional votes at membership meetings. These shares cannot be redeemed unless the member withdraws from membership.
Membership shares are not insured by the Financial Services Regulatory Authority of Ontario (FSRA).
