FEE JUST TO USE THEIR DEBIT CARD?
The Merck Employees Federal Credit Union Visa Check card is still FREE. Our Visa Check card is three cards in one. Use it as a plastic check or for ATM withdrawals worldwide (fees may apply) or use it at POS terminals for purchases and cash back. A checking account is required to order your free Visa Check Card.

DO YOU HAVE CREDIT CARD WOES?
Are you getting hassled by your current credit card company with unnecessary fees or a change in terms? Your Merck Employees Federal Credit Union offers MasterCard and Visa Platinum credit cards with the same low interest rate of 8.28% on purchases and cash advances, no late fees and a 25-day grace period on purchased items. The MasterCard earns 1 point for every dollar you spend and can be used for merchandise or travel vouchers. The Visa Platinum credit card gives you up to 1% cash back with $500,000 travel insurance as well as auto rental insurance. For more information or an application, contact the Loan Department at 732-594-3018 or apply on-line through Shadow 1 by clicking on the "Apply for a Loan" tab and selecting "MasterCard and Visa Platinum".
