After the first 100 days from the date membership is established, PSECU will assess whether all promotional requirements have been met. If eligible, bonus processing may take up to an additional 45 days. Therefore, if all conditions are satisfied, the $300 bonus can be deposited into your Regular savings share within 145 days of the membership establishment date. PSECU reserves the right to extend processing time if requirements are not met or if additional verification is needed. This promotion is limited to individuals who are either a U.S. Citizen or permanent resident alien residing in the U.S. who are 18 years of age or older at the time membership is established. Eligibility is determined based on the applicant’s status as of the date of membership establishment, and no exceptions will be made. Limit one (1) new member $300 New Member Bonus per tax identification number used to open a new PSECU account. Joint owners listed on accounts are not eligible to be rewarded for this bonus unless they open their own account. You will not be eligible for the $300 New Member Bonus if you are a current PSECU member or have closed an account within the past 12 months. You are not eligible to receive this bonus if you ever received any new member incentive bonus from PSECU for opening a new account, regardless of when the prior bonus was awarded. This restriction applies to all prior new member promotional offers and is not subject to exception. Members who open accounts and/or loans by fraudulent, suspicious, or illegal means, including but not limited to providing PSECU with fraudulent or fabricated information, are not eligible to participate in this bonus offer. PSECU may adjust the deposited bonus or remove the deposited bonus at any time if PSECU suspects accounts and/or loans were opened by fraudulent, suspicious, or illegal means, including but not limited to providing PSECU with fraudulent or fabricated information. A minimum share deposit of $5 is required to open and maintain a Regular savings share account.

A $5 minimum share purchase will be made on behalf of the new member by PSECU. The Annual Percentage Yield on PSECU's Regular savings share account is 0.25%.

The recipient of the bonus ($300) is solely responsible for payment of applicable taxes on that amount. If you have any questions, please seek the advice of a qualified tax professional. The decision to award a portion or total bonus is solely within PSECU’s discretion, and all decisions made by PSECU shall be final. PSECU may terminate or change the terms and conditions of this promotion without notice. Subject to all applicable federal, state, and local laws and regulations.
$300 New Member Bonus (must be completed within 100 calendar days of establishing membership)
