Frequently Asked Questions

Do referrals expire?

While the referral links you share do not expire, your friend or family member must open their new account within 180 days of completing their referral registration in order to be eligible for the offer.
Do you need to be an NIHFCU member in order to make a referral?

Although it is possible to refer a new member without being a member yourself, you must be a current NIH Federal Credit Union member in good standing to receive the reward. If the referrer is not a member, no reward cards will be sent to either party.
When will I receive my Reward Card?

Reward Cards are sent via the United States Postal Service (USPS) and typically arrive within 4-6 weeks after all qualification criteria have been completed.
The person I referred never received the referral email to complete their portion of the online registration. What should I do?

Occasionally, spam filters can incorrectly block even legitimate emails. Begin by having the person you referred conduct a search in their email for info@referlive.com. If they are still unable to locate the referral email ask them to add info@referlive.com to their address book and then contact us at info@referlive.com or by phone at 615-864-7520, Monday – Friday from 8am – 4pm CT.

 
Is there a limit to the number of referrals that I can make?

A Referrer may receive up to ten (10) Visa Reward Cards ($500 value) within a calendar year, but only one Referrer may receive a Visa Reward Card for each Referred Person who fulfills the requirements.
