Northwest Federal Launches New Credit Card Rewards Program

HERNDON, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Northwest Federal Credit Union announced today a new relationship rewards component to their existing NOW REWARDS credit card program. The new program, called “NOW REWARDS – Premier Points,” offers 2% cash back on all purchases for qualified cardholders, as well as rates as low as 8.24% APR¹.

“We are very excited to introduce NOW REWARDS – Premier Points as a new perk for qualified cardholders,” said Jeff Bentley, President and CEO of Northwest Federal. “We’re happy to be able to offer these rewards in conjunction with such a low APR for a program we know our members deserve and will enjoy. We designed this program based on member feedback, and we’re pleased to offer benefits our members indicated are most important to them.”

In addition to 2% cash back and a low variable rate, NOW REWARDS – Premier Points also helps members save money with no annual fee and several ways to redeem points and earn bonuses. Points can be redeemed for travel, gift cards, cash back, merchandise, charitable donations or the ability to “pay with points” at participating gas stations.

The new program also introduces a partnership with Ampre, allowing Northwest Federal members to earn up to 5% more bonus points (on top of regular rewards) when they shop in-store or online at participating merchants.

NOW REWARDS – Premier Points maintains all the valuable features of the NOW REWARDS card, including contactless payment, fraud protection, travel protection services, emergency services and more.
