BILOXI, Miss. —The $5-billion Keesler FCU has signed a multi-year partnership with Jackson State University Athletics that will include a co-branded debit card, discounted tickets and financial education programs for students.
The partnership, which kicks off with the 2026 football season, will give Keesler Federal members up to 15% off qualifying Jackson State Athletics tickets. The credit union also plans game-day activations, digital and in-venue experiences and community events throughout the year. The Jackson State University Athletics debit card and other benefits are expected to become available this fall.
"We’re excited to join the Tiger family," said Keesler Federal President and CEO Andrew Swoger. "Jackson State represents excellence, tradition, and an incredible sense of community. We can't wait to be part of the game-day excitement and support Tiger Nation in new ways."
The agreement also calls for expanded financial education initiatives for Jackson State students. Founded in 1877, Jackson State is one of the nation’s historically Black universities. Keesler Federal said the partnership builds on its presence in the Jackson market, where it operates six branches.
