Credit Card
Conversion
What You Need to Know
To enhance our product offerings to our members, Achieve Credit Union is upgrading to a NEW credit card processor and launching a NEW credit card rewards program starting in October 2026.
What This Means for You
1. Check the number on your current Achieve VISA credit card. Your next steps depend on which card you have.
Card starts with 4409: You'll get a new card in the mail. Here’s what to expect →
Card starts with 4066: No action needed on your card. It keeps working until it expires.
2. Redeem your ScoreCard Rewards points by September 30. They don’t transfer to the new rewards program and expire permanently afterwards.
3. Confirm your payment method for paying your VISA credit card balance and any autopay transactions to merchants (subscriptions, utilities, etc…). Due to this conversion, all cardholders with monthly automatic payments will need to update or verify payment information.
