Debit Card Round up
Our Debit Card Round Up program, formerly known as “It’s Your Change,” allows you to easily save money. Each debit card purchase will automatically round up to the nearest dollar, and the remaining change will be deposited into your savings account. Just like putting your pennies and dimes in a jar, you’ll be surprised at how much you can save without even thinking about it!
How It Works
- Debit Card Round Up is free and available to any member with a checking account and an active debit card.
- With Debit Card Round Up, each debit card transaction is automatically rounded up to the nearest dollar and the change is deposited into an account of your choosing.
- Funds can be deposited into your main savings account, a money market, or create a separate savings account and watch those dimes and nickels add up!
