Dannemora Federal Credit Union is excited to announce our new savings feature: PocketBoost.

Think about the times you've mindlessly swiped your card or tapped your phone to make a purchase. It's effortless, right? But what if we told you that those spare cents and dollars you're ignoring could actually make a difference?

Enter our PocketBoost Program.

It's like the 21st-century version of the change jar. Every time you buy something with plastic or a digital wallet, we round up your purchase to the nearest dollar, and that little bit extra…? It goes straight into your savings.

How does PocketBoost work?

For members who would like to enhance their savings, the PocketBoost program rounds up the amount of each purchase made with a debit card to the next whole dollar. The difference is then transferred to a specified savings account. If a purchase amount comes to a whole dollar amount, such as $5.00, the system rounds up by $1.00.

How to enroll?

Members can enroll in PocketBoost when they request a new debit card or enable their existing debit card at any of our four Dannemora FCU branches.
