At Options Credit Union, your membership means more than just better rates — it means real rewards for the relationships you build with us. That’s why we’re excited to introduce our new Member Loyalty Reward Program, designed to thank you for being an active part of our credit union community while helping you save more and earn more.



How The Member Loyalty Rewards Program Works


Our Loyalty Program is simple: the more you participate in your credit union, the more rewards you earn. Members who maintain key relationships with us — such as an active checking account, debit card usage, or multiple loan relationships — can qualify for exclusive rate benefits on loans and certificates of deposit (CDs). Over time, we will continue to add to the reward program, providing even greater perks!


Two Reward Levels


There are two reward levels, each built to recognize your loyalty and engagement:


Tier 1 - Loyalty Member
