Membership is free and starts when you open an account. People who live, work, worship, or go to school in Washington are in the usual field. Residents of select Oregon and Idaho counties, and members of partner groups, can qualify too.

Who can apply

Anyone can start an application, and BECU checks the field of membership along the way. If you do not already qualify, BECU says it may donate to a qualifying association on your behalf. Read the live rules before you apply.
