Upgrade Your Checking and Earn $250*

Think of us as a bank owned by people like you, not shareholders. That means more of the value comes back to you, not to someone else. It’s easy to earn the bonus:

1. Use promo code GNCU250 when joining GNCU as a new member by opening a Share Savings account (also known as your membership account) and your new Aspire Checking, Cash Back Checking, or Connect Checking account.

2. Establish a direct deposit, enroll in Digital Banking, and enroll in eStatements within 60 days of joining.

3. Make sure all of your GNCU accounts remain in good standing. That’s it!

Already a GNCU member? While this offer isn’t available to you, your immediate family can cash in by joining as members too!

Everyday Value for Your Everyday Needs

With a Connect Checking account, you’ll enjoy these benefits.
