How to Join Great River Federal Credit Union
Credit unions differ from banks in that they restrict membership based on a shared common bond, or the credit union’s “field of membership”.
That means in order to qualify for this bonus (or any offer from a credit union), you'll first need to meet Great River Federal Credit Union's membership requirements:
- Have a relative that is an existing member.
- Work at one of their Select Employer Groups (SEG)
- Join the American Consumer Council
Keep in mind that nearly all credit unions have a "once a member, always a member" policy, so once you're in, the above restrictions no longer apply.
Great River Federal Credit Union Locations
Credit unions are community-based, and a lot of the time this means they serve a specific geographic footprint.
Sometimes eligibility requirements will mean that you need to live, work, or worship in that area to become a member. Other times, you may be required to visit a branch in-person to take advantage of a welcome offer. Or, you may just prefer the convenience of banking with institutions that have locations near you.
