What is The Power of Participation?
LGE believes members should be rewarded for making smart choices—choices like relying on LGE as your primary financial institution. That's why we created The Power of Participation. The Power of Participation is a powerful program that rewards every member of the credit union with a wide array of free services based on your combined balances among your LGE accounts (excluding MEMBERS® Financial Services accounts). It's simple—each member automatically qualifies for one of three exceptional benefit groups on a monthly basis: Priority, Preferred or Premier. As your relationship grows, so do your rewards! And, the rewards automatically come to you; there's nothing you have to keep track of or initiate. Instead, we assess your combined average daily balances, assign your rewards and note your participation status on your statement.

As a member/owner of LGE, we are confident that you will want to make the most of your membership by increasing your relationship with LGE through The Power of Participation. If you have accounts at other financial institutions, let us help you switch today so you can begin to enjoy the power of being a participating LGE member/owner.

How The Power of Participation Works
At the end of each month, we will determine your participation status by assessing your combined average daily balances of your LGE accounts (excluding MEMBERS® Financial Services accounts). Rewards are awarded the following month depending on which tier you fall within.

How Can I Change My Participation Level?
Although The Power of Participation provides numerous money-saving rewards, our exceptional products and services alone are reason enough to handle all your finances with LGE. To increase your rewards, consider just a few ways you could boost your participation status:

• Use the LGE Switch Kit to move your checking account from another institution to LGE
• Refinance your auto loan with LGE
• Use LGE for your Mortgage needs
• Earn more with one of our three exceptional Money Market programs

Remember, as a not-for-profit collaborative the more our members participate, the more valuable membership/ownership becomes.
