EveryLife New Checking Bonus

America’s Christian Credit Union (ACCU) is proud to partner with EveryLife to champion mothers who are bravely facing challenges caring for their babies. Every life is important to God and to His people. To address this, we are teaming up with EveryLife to donate a box of diapers to a Christian pregnancy resource center for each new checking account relationship that is started at ACCU before 01/31/2025. We will also reward you with a $100 bonus for participating in this important cause with us.1

1 – How does it work? The $100 one-time cash bonus is available on new consumer checking accounts opened on or after 10/08/2024. Applicants must meet the minimum requirements for a Basic Checking (CK06) or Secure Checking (CK03) account, including valid identification, verifiable personal information, valid physical address in the U.S., and an active Regular Share Savings account (SV01) to establish membership with ACCU. All signers authorize ACCU to make inquiries from any consumer reporting agency, including a check protection service, in connection with the new account(s). New membership with ACCU is contingent on satisfactory account verification. The bonus offer ends on 01/31/2025 and is only available for new ACCU consumer CK06 and CK03 checking accounts.

How do I qualify? Open a new CK06 or CK03 account between 10/08/2024 and 01/31/2025 using a qualifying promo code in the application “Promo Code” field. Existing members with an active CK06 or CK03 checking account before 10/08/2024 do not qualify for this promotion. CK06 and CK03 checking accounts have a $3.00 and $4.00 monthly paper statement fee that is waived upon enrollment in e-statements. CK03 has a monthly account service fee of $4.95 for access to additional account benefits. Visit https://americaschristiancu.com/personal/rates/ to compare account features and for complete annual percentage yields associated with ACCU accounts. The minimum amount required to open a CK03 account is $10; the minimum amount required to open a CK06 account is $15. The qualifying promo codes will be displayed or announced in marketing campaigns (contact an ACCU representative at 800-343-6328 for more details).

Limits and Exclusions: Offer is limited to one per member and one per account (including trustees and signers on joint accounts). Offer is not available for existing ACCU consumer checking account holders who have or had a CK06 or CK03 checking account prior to 10/08/2024 (including trustees and signers on joint accounts) or those who have closed an ACCU checking account within the past 12 months. New Health Care Sharing Membership accounts are not eligible for this promotion. Existing members with an active CK06 or CK03 checking account before 10/08/2024 do not qualify for this promotion. The new checking account must be open, in good standing, and have a balance greater than zero when the cash bonus is paid. Accounts opened fraudulently or with illicit funds are not considered to be in good standing and will not qualify for the bonus. Members are eligible for one checking account cash bonus per account and tax ID number; members cannot open multiple checking accounts and receive multiple cash bonuses. Bonus payouts are issued and reported for tax purposes to the primary account holder of a joint account. The promo code is applied to the first checking account that is opened between 10/08/2024 and 01/31/2025.

How will I receive my bonus? The $100 opening bonus will be awarded to the newly established CK06 or CK03 account after the account has been active for 90 days in good standing. The cash bonus will be paid into the checking account upon verification of the qualifying promo code. Please allow ACCU up to 90 days from the account opening date to receive your bonus, plus an additional 15 days for processing.
