RALEIGH, N.C.– State Employees’ Credit Union said 60,000 of its members have now signed up for its in-house developed CashPoints Global account, which provides a controlled spending debit card tied to a non-interest bearing SECU account.
The account was designed for members who not only are frequent travelers, students or online shoppers, but for those members looking for a practical alternative to traditional checking account services.
“SECU members find CPG an attractive option because of its versatility of use and budget-friendly features which include no checks, no paper statements, and no overdraft or non-sufficient fund (NSF) fees,” the credit union said in a statement. “The CashPoints Global card has a low monthly fee of $1.00 and is accepted anywhere the Visa logo is displayed–ATMs, merchants and online retailers. Funds can be added to the account at any time and CPG account holders have access to SECU wire transfers and online BillPay, among other services.”
