The $5.2 billion, Live Oak, Texas-based Randolph-Brooks Federal Credit Union recently paid more than $2.9 million in Gold Cash Back MasterCard credit card rewards to members just in time for last-minute Christmas shopping, the credit union announced.
Gold Cash Back MasterCard credit card holders earn up to 1% cash back on their net purchases, based on their accumulated yearly dollar purchases, according to RBFCU's website. RBFCU said since introducing the card in 1994, it has returned more than $30 million to members in cash back rebates.
