Hey there! Exciting news - SWACU is starting a member referral program! Now's the time to spread the word and get your coworkers and family to join. Plus, you and your referral could both win big in our monthly drawing! Keep reading to find out how it all works!
Who can I refer for this promo?
- Your family members.
- Spouses
- Brothers/sisters
- Parents
- Grandparents
- Grandchildren
- Your coworker, as long as you work for one of our approved Select Employee Groups.
- What does this mean?
- Because SWACU has a closed membership, one of the ways people can become members is through their employers. We partner with their employer to offer you the benefit of credit union membership—in other words, we’re exclusive.
- If you’re not sure if we have partnered with your employer, just ask!
- Here are some examples of our most popular Select Employee Groups.

If You're a Current SWACU Member
We LUV that you're a member and we hope that you enjoy the benefits of your membership. We'd love for your help to share the LUV! Here's what you can do:
Step 1: We’ll send you your promo code by email or physical mail. If you haven’t received it by March 20th, reach out to us and we’d be happy to give you your code.
Step 2: Shave the LUV! Talk to your family or coworkers about membership, the benefits, great rates, and what stands out to you. Encourage your referral to fill out a membership application.
Step 3: Let us know who you’re referring.
Step 4: Once your referral opens their account and funds it with $5, you’ll be entered into a drawing for $250 or other prizes.
Step 5: Keep referring! The more people you refer and open accounts, the more chances you have to win.
I was referred by a SWACU Member
Hi! We’re glad you’re here! Take a look around and see what we’re all about. We’re proud to offer our members some of the best and most competitive rates, as well as different kinds of accounts that benefit them in their different stages of life.
Step 1: If you’ve been talking to someone who is already a SWACU member and they gave you their promo code, keep that handy.
Step 2: Fill out a membership application. When you get to the section “How did you hear about us?” Make sure to select the “Membership Referral Promo” option AND enter the promo code (image below).
Step 3: Be on the lookout for emails from our team, in case they need additional information from you.
Step 4: If approved, fund your savings account with $5. Once you’ve been a member for 90 days, and your account has remained in good standing, you’ll also be entered into a $250 or other prize drawing. So, the person who referred you can win and so can you!
