Members earn points in the free Relationship Rewards Program by choosing Desert Financial for various banking activities. These activities can include acquiring a loan, receiving direct deposits of more than $500 per month and more.
The more account activity a member has — deposits, loan balance, debit card activities — the higher their individual giveback bonus. Qualifying members will receive an average giveback bonus of $88.11 this year.
The Relationship Rewards program and the Member Giveback Bonus are part of the credit union’s broader focus on member financial well-being, designed to help members build stability, flexibility and confidence in their day-to-day finances.
“As a member-owned institution, our responsibility is to return value to the people who make our success possible,” said Jeff Meshey, president and CEO of Desert Financial. “The giveback bonus is just one way we deliver on that responsibility by putting money back in our members’ hands.”
The Member Giveback Bonus program is one of the many rewards members enjoy for banking with Desert Financial. Other potential rewards include rate discounts on consumer loans and rebates of non-Desert Financial ATM fees.
