Our Verdict

The savings account that is required doesn’t have any monthly fees to worry about. There is a hard pull to become a member and open a share savings account, this is normally a TransUnion credit pull.  No idea if you can fund with a credit card or not. I don’t think the work around will work with this promotion either.

The main reason you’d want NFCU membership is the fact that they often offer credit card sign up bonuses (or CD rates), but I haven’t seen one of those for some time so it’s possible they are moving away from that. You can read more about the eligibility requirements to join NFCU here.
