HOW IT WORKS
- If you know a current SLFCU member, both you AND they could get $50 when you join and meet all offer requirements. They’ll need to provide you with a referral code before you apply. Tell them about the Refer a Friend Program for more information.
- Apply for SLFCU membership online or at a branch. If you have a referral code, add it to your online application where indicated, or give it to the SLFCU representative with whom you are meeting. You must be age 18 or over, open your membership with a minimum deposit of $1, open a Quick Cash or Money Manager Checking account, and establish recurring ACH direct deposits of at least $100. These requirements must be met within the first 60 days of establishing membership.
- Within 40 days of all requirements being met, we’ll add $150 to your SLFCU savings account – plus the additional $50 if you were referred. And your referring friend will get their $50, too!

New Member Bonus Offer
The Sandia Laboratory Federal Credit Union (SLFCU) New Member Bonus Offer is available for a limited time only. SLFCU reserves the right to modify, extend, or terminate the Offer at any time without prior notice. The offer is limited to a new SLFCU member (“New Member”) receiving one (1) $150 New Member Bonus Offer (“Offer”) and, optionally, one (1) $50 Referral Reward (“Reward”) through SLFCU’s Refer a Friend Program. The New Member must provide the referral code before the application process is complete when applying for membership at an SLFCU branch. If applying online, the referral code must be entered into the membership application form where indicated.
To receive the Offer, the New Member must be at least 18 years old, reside in the United States, and agree to the terms and conditions of the Offer. The New Member must meet SLFCU membership eligibility requirements.
For a New Member to receive the $150 Offer, they must not have been an SLFCU member within the past 180 days. They must open a new membership at SLFCU with a minimum deposit of $1, open a Quick Cash or Money Manager Checking account, and establish recurring ACH direct deposits of at least $100. All the above requirements must be met within the first 60 days of establishing membership. Qualifying direct deposits must be ACH deposits of payroll, pension, or government benefits (such as Social Security).
When all the above requirements are met, the New Member will receive an additional $50 Reward if they have been referred by an Existing Member that meets the requirements described within the terms and conditions of the Refer a Friend Program. The Existing Member will also get a $50 reward at that time. Offer and Rewards will be deposited into the member’s primary savings account within 40 days of all requirements being met. Accounts must be in good standing at the time of Offer and Reward.
SLFCU employees who meet all Offer requirements are eligible to participate as a New Member. SLFCU employees can participate as a referring person but are not eligible to receive a $50 Reward. If an SLFCU employee refers another SLFCU employee, neither employee is eligible to receive a $50 Reward. New Members, excluding SLFCU employees, referred by an SLFCU employee will still receive their Offer and Reward as per the conditions of the Refer a Friend Program.

Important Information About Procedures for Opening a New Account
To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, Federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who opens an account. What this means for you: When you open an account, we will ask for your name, address, date of birth, and other information that will allow us to identify you. We may also ask to see your driver's license or other identifying documents.
