Admin Heads up, deal hunters: Acclaim Federal Credit Union is paying a $100.00 bonus to new customers who open the Acclaim Federal Credit Union Learn2Earn Savings Match and meet the requirements below. This one is open to residents of North Carolina — new members only; former members qualify only if all previous Acclaim accounts closed more than one year before opening.
How you earn it: Open a new membership with an eligible savings account (Kid Connect and Teen Connect excluded); Your opening Membership Savings deposit is matched dollar for dollar up to $100 — $5 gets $5, $25 gets $25, $50 gets $50, $100 gets $100 (a $250 deposit still caps at $100); later deposits do not count; Download the Zogo app, join with code ACCLAIM, complete one qualifying skill (Make a Budget, Spot Fraud Before It Happens, or Repay Debt), and email proof with your name, contact info, course name, and completion screenshot to Teller@AcclaimFCU.org within 60 days of opening; Matched funds are deposited after verification but cannot be withdrawn for 12 months from account opening; closing early forfeits unreleased funds. No direct deposit or debit spending is needed here — the extra step is finishing one Zogo course and emailing your proof within 60 days.
Who’s it for? Anyone in the eligible states looking for an easy bank bonus without monthly fees eating into it. If you’ve been meaning to switch banks or add a second checking account, a $100.00 incentive with no monthly service charge is about as clean as these offers get.
No promo code needed — just open the account through the bank’s offer page during the promotional period and complete the requirements.
Pros and cons
- Pro: Up to $100 matched on your opening deposit, with no direct deposit and no debit purchases required
- Pro: The match starts at just $5, so even a small opening deposit earns something
- Pro: No monthly fee mentioned for the qualifying savings account
- Con: This is a savings-deposit match, not a flat $100 checking bonus — the match depends on what you deposit at opening
- Con: Matched money is locked for 12 months and forfeited if you close early
- Con: You must finish a Zogo course and email proof within 60 days, and the program runs only while grant funding remains
