A Message From Our President & CEO

Share on email Share on facebook Share on linkedin Share on twitter

This article was included in a 2021 PSECU member newsletter. Please note that rates and information were current as of that time. For current rates, visit psecu.com/rates.

As I write today, I hope that you’re all well and feeling the same sense of excitement I am as we see the COVID-19 pandemic starting to wind down. This past year has certainly been unlike any other, and it’s a relief to see infections declining and restrictions being eased as we head into the summer months.

I’d be remiss if I didn’t pause here to thank you for all the support you’ve given us during this time. Your continued patronage and kind words have kept the credit union going strong and allowed us to continue to grow despite the challenges of the past year. We’re grateful for the continued opportunity to serve all of you, our valued members, and meet your financial needs.

While much has changed in our world, what hasn’t changed is the great value that we at PSECU continue to extend with our competitive credit card offerings. As restaurants increase capacity for indoor and outdoor dining, friends and families plan reunions, and postponed vacations become realities, we hope you’ll take advantage of the many benefits of our Classic and Founder’s Cards to help finance your summer fun.

Our Classic Card offers a consistently low interest rate, currently 9.9% APR (subject to change), on all purchases and cash advances, to make summer splurges more financially manageable for you. And our Founder’s Card, which offers 2%* or 1.5% in cash rewards on every purchase, lets you earn each time you pay with your card.

Plus, for a limited time, we’re offering our members unlimited opportunities to earn even more with our Summer SwipeStakes, which will award 10 prizes of $500 per month in June and July. Entering is easy – you earn one entry for each transaction you make with your PSECU credit or debit card during these two months. The more you use your PSECU cards, the more entries you’ll get in our Summer SwipeStakes, which gives you even more reason to keep your PSECU cards at the top of your wallet! No purchase necessary to enter the Summer SwipeStakes.

As you’re swiping your way into summer, we hope you’ll continue to look to us as your trusted financial partner and help us spread the word about both our cards’ ongoing value and this exciting promotion. What better way to show your family members love than to help connect them with a credit card that lets them make their summer dreams a reality.

As always, thank you for your continued support!

Sincerely,

George W. Rudolph

PSECU President, CEO, & Fellow Member
