Terms & Conditions:
* The Christmas Cash Bonus Program runs from 11/1/2023 thru 10/31/2024 and is open to members with both an ACU checking account and an active Christmas Club account. Each signature-based or “credit” point of sale transaction greater than $1.00 made with your ACU debit card while both accounts are open qualifies for the deposit bonus. Deposit bonuses are credited at $0.20 per qualifying transaction for the first 25 transactions made per month, $0.10 per transaction thereafter. Christmas Club accounts are considered active for this program if they have a balance of $1,000 or more at the end of the month or have received non-bonus deposits totaling at least $10.00 each month. Christmas Cash is credited each month based on the prior month’s activity. An early withdrawal fee of $25.00 is charged on any withdrawal made from the account prior to the November 1 payout. Terms and conditions subject to change without notice.
1 Overdraft Protection Services- Fees for overdrawing the account may be imposed on each check, draft, item, ATM transaction and one-time debit transaction (if you have consented to overdraft protection for ATM and one-time debit card transactions), debit card point of purchase, preauthorized automatic debit, telephone-initiated withdrawal or any other electronic withdrawal or transfer transaction that is drawn on an insufficient available account balance. The entire balance in the account may not be available for withdrawal, transfer or paying a check or item. You may consult the Funds Availability Disclosure for information regarding the availability of funds in the account. Fees for overdrawing the account may be imposed for each overdraft, regardless of whether we pay or return the check, draft, item, or transaction. If we have approved an overdraft protection limit for the account, such fees may reduce your approved limit. For ATM/ITM and one-time debit transactions, you must consent to our overdraft protection service (Courtesy Pay) in order for the transaction amount to be covered. Without your consent, we may not authorize and pay an overdraft resulting from these types of transactions. Account must become positive in balance within 30 days, or the member account is no longer eligible for overdraft protection services (Courtesy Pay). Courtesy Pay Overdraft fees are $10.00 per item if item amount is less than $25.00, and $25.00 per item if the amount is greater than $25.00.
