Supporting your local school shouldn’t feel like another assignment. That’s the idea behind Primis Bank’s Extra Credit Program, a simple way for schools to earn donations while their supporters get more from their everyday banking.
It’s a win-win that starts with something people already do every day: use their debit card.
With Extra Credit, supporters can open a participating Primis checking account connected to their school and earn cash back on everyday debit card purchases. At the same time, Primis helps support the school through the program. So whether you’re picking up groceries, grabbing coffee or tackling the weekly to-do list, everyday spending can become part of something bigger.
The Extra Credit Program is already making an impact across Virginia, with schools including Prince George County Public Schools, Dumbarton Elementary in Henrico County and more participating in the program.
More support. Less fundraising.
For schools, Extra Credit offers something that can be hard to come by: fundraising without all the extra work.
No selling wrapping paper. No organizing another bake sale. No asking families to find time in already packed schedules. Instead, the program gives schools an effortless way to receive additional financial support through their community of parents, families, alumni and other supporters.
That means school leaders and volunteers can spend less time worrying about the next fundraiser and more time focused on what matters most: their students.
Banking that gives supporters something back, too.
Extra Credit isn’t just designed to benefit schools. Supporters get a checking account built to reward their everyday spending with cash back on qualifying debit card purchases.
It’s banking you can feel good about for two reasons. Your everyday purchases can put a little cash back in your pocket while your banking relationship helps support a school that matters to you.
At Primis, we believe banking should work harder for the people and communities we serve. Extra Credit brings that idea to life by turning an everyday financial relationship into an easy way to make a difference.
