Available to residents in South Carolina and North Carolina only, REV Federal Credit Union is offering a $250 welcome bonus when you open a new personal checking account and meet qualifying requirements. It's pretty straightforward activities for an active checking account, like direct deposits and using your debit card.
One thing to note is that the bonus will be held until the account is 6 months old.
How To Earn The Bonus
The REV Federal Credit Union Personal Checking promotion requires you to set up eligible direct deposits and make purchases using the account's card in order to earn the $250 bonus (step-by-step breakdown is listed above!).
As with any offer, don't forget to read the fine print before opening your new account. It's where the credit union will clearly state who is eligible for the deal along with any nuances you'll want to be aware of.
The fine print
- Member must be at least 18 years of age, have not had an open checking account within the last 12 months, and have not caused the credit union a loss in the past.
- A qualifying direct deposit is a recurring direct deposit of a paycheck, pension or other regular monthly income (including Social Security) electronically deposited into account per statement cycle.

How to Join REV 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 one of REV Federal Credit Union's membership requirements:
- Live, work, worship, volunteer, or attend school in the following SC counties: Berkeley, Charleston, Colleton or Dorchester.
- Live, work, worship, volunteer, or attend school in the following NC counties: Brunswick, Columbus, New Hanover, Richmond or Scotland
- Live, work, worship, volunteer, or attend school in specific areas of the Mid-Ohio Valley or the following WV counties: Wirt or Wood.
- Live, work, worship, volunteer, or attend school in specific areas of the Mid-Ohio Valley or Washington County, Ohio.
- Be related to a current member.
- Have a military ID or honorably discharged
- Make a one-time donation of $15 to Friend of the Foundation
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.
