America First Credit Union Renews Gift Card Program with TMG
February 25, 2009
One of the largest credit unions in the country, America First Credit Union, has renewed its prepaid gift card partnership with Des Moines-based TMG (The Members Group).
Since becoming a TMG client in 2006, America First Credit Union has been able to offer its membership customizable picture cards within its gift card program.
America First sold nearly 26,000 gift cards in 2008.
“Our membership views gift cards as more than merely a gift,” said Rich Syme, America First’s executive vice president in charge of prepaid. “Because the cards can be redeemed almost anywhere, our members use them for all kinds of things, such as travel or children’s allowances. As such, we need a flexible, member-centric program, and TMG has proven they can provide just that.”
