How to become a co-op member

Updated 2 months ago

Join as a co-op member online, in S-mobiili, or at a service point. You only pay a one-time membership fee of 100 euros at once or in instalments, and there is no joining fee. You get the membership fee back if you end your membership.

How do I become a co-op member and get an S-Etukortti?

You can become a co-op member in three ways:

  1. Join online

  2. Download S-mobiili for the first time

  3. Visit a Service and bank point

You get an S-Etukortti when you join. There is no joining fee. You only pay the membership fee (100 €) to your co-op.

Membership fee:

  • All at once: 100 €

  • Or in instalments: at least 20 € immediately, the rest according to your co-op's rules (usually 24 months)

The membership fee is an investment: you get it back if you end your co-op membership.

Good to know:

  • Be prepared to prove your identity

  • You can also get an S-Etukortti without your own co-op membership: it's enough that you belong to a co-op member's household

Who can join as a co-op member online?

You can join online if you meet these requirements:

  1. You are of legal age (18 years or older)

  2. You have a Finnish personal identity code

  3. You have a permanent address in Finland

  4. You do not have an active co-op membership

  5. You have bank credentials or mobile certificate for identification and paying the membership fee
