Heritage Community Credit Union Launches Rewards-Based Checking Accounts

June 5, 2017 (Sacramento, Calif.) – Residents of Sacramento County, Placer County and the surrounding area can now open free rewards checking accounts at Heritage Community Credit Union with the introduction of its innovative Kasasa rewards checking accounts, including Kasasa Cash, Kasasa Saver, Kasasa Cash Back, and Kasasa Tunes. These free accounts allow members to earn rewards that fit their lifestyle, such as high interest rates, cash back or ATM refunds, in addition to the credit union’s personalized customer service, something that larger financial institutions just cannot match.

“It is our privilege to help our Sacramento-area members get the most out of their hard-earned money with our many diverse products and services,” said Ed Turk, CEO of Heritage Community Credit Union. “We are pleased to expand our fintech services with new Kasasa checking accounts, which reward members for simple actions such as logging in to online banking and signing up for e-statements, as well as using their debit card and using direct deposit.”

To qualify for the rewards, members need to use their debit card at least 12 times per statement cycle and log in to mobile/online banking once a month. However, even if members do not qualify each month, their accounts are still free.

“The great thing about these Kasasa accounts is that they are applicable to every stage in life, whether our members are retired, still working, just entering the workforce or still in school,” said Turk. “We enjoy working with our members to determine which account is best for them.”
