Credit Union West is offering a $150 bonus for opening a new Heritage High-Yield Checking account, and it's a pretty straightforward deal. To snag the bonus, you'll need to use the promo code JOIN150, set up a direct deposit, and make at least 15 purchases with your debit card within 30 days of opening the account. The offer's good until December 31, 2024, so you have some time to decide.
Why should you care? Well, $150 is free money! While it's not the biggest bonus out there (there was a $300 offer previously), it's relatively easy to achieve. The account has no monthly fees, so you don't have to worry about that eating into your bonus. Just remember, you'll need to keep the account open for at least 90 days to actually get your hands on the $150, and it will be reported as interest on a 1099-INT form, meaning you'll owe taxes on it. This offer is available to anyone who lives, works, or worships in most of Arizona, and to immediate family of current Credit Union West members or employees.
Why This Matters for Your Strategy
News in the points-and-miles world moves fast, and promotional changes often have a short window. If this announcement affects a card or program you hold, log into your awardtrail dashboard to check your current benefit usage, bonus progress, and whether a transfer or redemption makes sense right now — before terms change.
As a general rule: transfer points only when you have a specific redemption in mind — transfers are almost always one-way and non-reversible. If you're unsure of the value, check our redemption guides before acting.
