Tucson Federal Credit Union (TFCU) was established in 1937 in Tucson, Arizona when a group of teachers with a vision came together to form a financial cooperative that could better serve the financial needs of Tucson’s school employees and their families. Today, TFCU has grown to 60,000 members and $650 million in assets.
TFCU is utilizing Arkalytics to better serve their members and community. One way they're doing this is by offering laser-targeted credit card promotions via email to help their most vulnerable members including those who have struggled with climbing interest rates caused by Increasing federal reserve rates. They're making the best payments they can, but most of that payment is going to interest.

The promotion offers members a 0.00% APR for the first 12 months. After the promotion ends, many members lowered their overall credit card rate to as low as 15.75% APR! This saved members hundreds of dollars in interest payments and improved members’ overall financial well-being. Past credit card promos show that 68% of balances were retained and new purchases were made with TFCU’s credit card after the promotional period ended.
