Member Benefits Program

Your accounts work together to earn you extra benefits.

Our Member Benefits Program rewards members for expanding their relationships with The Summit. The more combined Savings, Share Certificate, Loan, Visa® and Mortgage account balances you have at The Summit, the more FREE benefits you’ll receive. Plus, if you have Checking with Direct Deposit with us, you’re automatically exempt from the Account Maintenance Fee.1
