As communities and the nation confront the many challenges brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic, First Financial Federal Credit Union members received some much-needed support with more than $660,000 in rebates and dividends for the first quarter of 2020.
“Our members are at the center of all that we do,” said Eric Church, First Financial President, and CEO. “That’s why now more than ever, it’s so important that we support them every way we can. We know every little bit helps, especially during these unprecedented times, and our quarterly rewards program is just another way for us to give back to our members.”
First Financial checking account holders earned over $245,000 in checking dividends alone. Members with the Better Rewards checking account earned the highest dividends and were eligible for additional Visa® debit card cash rebates. First Financial Visa® credit card holders were also rewarded this quarter. Altogether, debit and credit card holders received over $410,000 in cash rebates.
In addition to the first quarter rewards, First Financial is offering many additional resources to provide their members with financial relief during the pandemic. These increased measures include loan payment deferrals, increased availability of funds, no penalty early withdrawals from share certificates, and financial education resources, to name a few. Members are encouraged to utilize the credit union’s robust online and mobile banking services and Call Centers, to manage their financial needs from the comfort and safety of their homes.
