Altura Credit Union debit card holder wins $500

RIVERSIDE, CA (March 25, 2014) -- Erik Smith from Riverside recently took home $500 from Altura Credit Union simply for using his Altura Visa® Debit Card to make a purchase.  Smith, who works for the Riverside Unified School District, has been an Altura member for 25 years. The 39-year-old also is a military veteran.

His win is part of Altura’s “Better Ways to Win” promotion, which highlights the convenience of using Altura’s debit card for everyday purchases. Cardholders have a chance to win $500 each month throughout 2014.  At the end of the year, those 12 monthly winners become finalists in a drawing for a brand new Audi A4.

Altura membership is not necessary to enter the “Better Ways to Win” campaign. Altura members can register to participate by signing into online banking, calling Member Services or visiting an Altura branch. Non-members can register by mailing a 3 x 5 card to Altura Credit Union for one entry.

Altura members can earn additional entries each month by using their Altura Visa Debit Card to make purchases.  All approved purchase transactions will count as an extra entry (All ATM transactions are excluded).
