Azura Pays Over $1.28 Million to Members with Beyond Checking
In 2024, Azura members with Beyond Checking Accounts were collectively paid over $1.28 Million in dividends and ATM fee refunds. Our most popular account, individual members can earn up to $600 per year!**
"Our Beyond Checking Account is a testament to the value of member-owned credit unions and our 'for people, not profit' philosophy," said Sheryl Dick, SVP of Retail Services. "This account, hands down, is one of the best reasons to join Azura."
Azura's high-yield checking account earns members a bonus rate of 4.07% APY* on balances up to $15,000 and refunds on ATM withdrawal fees, nationwide.+ There is no minimum balance requirement and no monthly fees on qualifying accounts. To qualify, just keep doing what you’re probably already doing. Make at least 15 debit card purchases, maintain at least one direct deposit or ACH transaction, and receive e-statements.
If you don't meet these qualifications, you'll still earn our base interest rate. And, you can get right back to earning your full rewards the very next cycle that you qualify.
Real stories from real members!
"Recently, an Azura associate suggested switching my Carefree Checking to a Beyond Checking account to benefit from a better interest rate. This proactive approach to customer service impressed me and reinforced my decision to continue banking with Azura. I will definitely recommend Azura Credit Union to my friends and family."
*Annual Percentage Yield.
**$600 projected earnings is based off the maximum dividends that can be earned on a balance of up to $15,000 over a 12 month period. 4%x$15,000=$600.
+If you do not meet the monthly qualifications, you will be charged a $5 service fee as stated in the Fee Schedule and you will not qualify for ATM surcharge refunds. The monthly qualification cycle is defined as the calendar month.
