Hughes Federal Credit Union
Regular checking accounts are essential, but they’re like empty canvases—they hold your money but don’t actively help it grow. Checking accounts that offer extended benefits often provide discounts and rewards that can transform them into powerful financial tools.
Hughes Federal Credit Union’s Checking PLUS program, powered by Benefits Plus, is an example of how checking accounts go beyond basic banking. It’s a members-only program that transforms your checking account into a powerful financial tool. Here’s how Checking PLUS helps members make the most of their money.
Earning on Everyday Spending
* Cash Back Shopping: Imagine getting money back on groceries, clothes, electronics, and more – Checking PLUS rewards you for everyday purchases at thousands of popular stores.
* Local Discounts: Support local businesses and save! Checking PLUS unlocks exclusive discounts at Tucson-area restaurants, shops, and service providers.
* Travel Perks: Love to travel? Checking PLUS doesn’t just hold your money – it helps you stretch it further with travel cash back on hotels, flights, and car rentals. Plus, enjoy guaranteed lowest prices on travel arrangements.
* Warehouse Club Cash Back: Already a Costco or Sam’s Club member? Checking PLUS rewards your loyalty with cash back on memberships.
More Than Just Savings
Checking PLUS goes beyond boosting your purchasing power. It also offers valuable protections, including:
* Cell Phone Protection: Accidents happen! Checking PLUS offers up to $600 for repairs on damaged smartphones, providing peace of mind.
* Extended Warranties: Get extra protection for your purchases! Checking PLUS extends manufacturer warranties on eligible items for an additional year.
* Identity Theft Restoration: Unfortunately, identity theft is a risk. Checking PLUS provides identity theft restoration services, helping you recover if you become a victim.
