How to Join Westmark 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 Westmark Credit Union's membership requirements:
- Live, work or be retired from an employer in a qualified Idaho county
- Have an existing family member that is a member of WCU
- Be a current employee of WCU
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.
