How to Join Travis 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 Travis Credit Union's membership requirements:
- Everyone who lives, works, worships or attends school Solano, Yolo, Contra Costa, Merced, Napa, Alameda, Colusa, Placer, Sacramento, San Joaquin, Sonoma and Stanislaus counties
- Military and civilian personnel of Travis Air Force Base
- Immediate family members of current members
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.
