Use your debit card to earn FREE rewards
Your best interests are always “top of mind” at Interra Credit Union. Every day, we look for ways to offer increased benefits, without increasing charges and fees. With that in mind, Interra offers the Interra Rewards program – an opportunity for you to earn points just for using your debit card.*
Earn points – redeem for rewards!
- Do you have an Interra checking account with a debit card? That’s what you need to be automatically eligible. You don’t even have to sign up.
- Just use your debit card for purchase transactions, signature-based and PIN-based, transactions, too.
- Every three months, a reward certificate will be mailed to qualifying members – in February, May, August and November.
- The reward certificate includes all the rewards points the member has earned within the preceding three-month period.
- You can choose to redeem points right away, or accrue points and accumulate them toward a gift in a higher-point category.
Create your account
Recording certificates
- Upon receipt of a certificate, enter the certificate string online. At that time, the points will be credited to your account.
Does it matter if it’s a signature-based or PIN-based purchase?
- Yes. You get more points for signature purchases, but you get points for all purchases.
- You earn one point for every $100 you spend with a signature-based transaction.
- You earn one-half point for every $100 you spend with a PIN-based transaction.
What if there are two debit cards on the same checking account – do they both count?
- We look at the transactions at the checking account level. That means that the transactions made on each card are accumulated toward one reward certificate.
Managing points
- Remember, the points accumulate and are credited to one certificate at the account level. Two debit cards on one account = one aggregate certificate.
- You can accumulate points for up to 2 years, especially if you want to redeem rewards for a more valuable gift. At the end of two years, points expire in the order they were earned. That means you don’t lose everything, only those expiring at that time.
- Points can be transferred. For example, if a church needs a new TV for the youth, members can pool their rewards points toward the purchase of one item.
Redeeming certificates
- Order a gift at any time with accumulated points.
- The gift is shipped in a bright yellow box and usually arrives within one week.
- The shipment can be tracked online.
- There are NO shipping and/or handling charges.
Do ATM transactions count?
- No, only purchase transactions count for Interra Rewards.
What if you have an Interra checking account, but you don’t have a debit card?
- Just call or visit any Interra office. A member service representative can assist you.
What if you have questions?
- The Interra Rewards website provides you with information and resources. That’s also where you enter your certificate numbers and redeem your rewards.
- If you need additional support, please call the program support number at 910.202.3429 (this is not a toll-free number).
