*$50 Matching Offer:
The guidelines below describe the terms that apply to participation in the Golden 1 Credit Union $50 matching offer promotional program (“Program”) offered by Golden 1 Credit Union (“Golden 1”).
Eligible Participants:
All new members who open a Golden 1 Student Checking or Youth Savings account during the Promotion Period. For Youth Savings accounts, the required parent or guardian may be an existing member, but the youth must be a new member. This offer is limited to individuals who have not owned or jointly owned a Golden 1 checking account and youths who have not owned or jointly owned a Youth Savings account within the last twenty-four (24) months. Fiduciary accounts (e.g., trust and business accounts) are not eligible. Current Golden 1 employees are not eligible.
Promotion Period:
The Program will be available from August 13, 2024, 12:01 AM to September 30, 2024, 11:59 PM.
Offer Terms:
In order to qualify for the bonus, an Eligible Participant must open a new Golden 1 Student Checking or Youth Savings account by September 30, 2024, and complete at least one qualifying deposit of $50 or more into that account by October 10, 2024. The qualifying deposit must be made via an ACH transfer from a linked bank account, a direct deposit, or a deposit at a Golden 1 branch. P2P transfers (ACH-based P2P or debit-card based P2P from Venmo, PayPal, Apple Cash, Square Cash, etc.) are excluded. This offer may not be combined with any other checking account bonus offer and is limited to one bonus per member per account. Even if a member opens both a Student Checking and a Youth Savings account, they are only eligible for one $50 matching bonus.
After new members meet the qualification criteria stated above, Golden 1 will make a deposit of $50 into the qualifying Golden 1 account after deposit verification, no later than November 30, 2024. The account must remain open and in good standing until the bonus is credited.
