Benefits of banking with Coastline Credit Union
Rewards program
Coastline Credit Union credit cards offer complimentary membership to the Rewarder Loyalty Program, which gives you a way to use points for your purchases. When you have earned enough points, you just swipe your Rewarder Loyalty Card at an EFTPOS terminal and enter your PIN to pay for some or all of your chosen purchase. As the value of points may vary, you will need to check your Rewarder balance online to see how much value you have to spend. Visit the Rewarder website for more details about this program.
Waived annual fee options
With the Coastline Visa credit card, you can avoid the $75 annual fee if you spend at least $12,000 per year. With the Coastline Visa Business Rewarder, you can avoid the annual fee by spending at least $20,000 p.a.

Important information about this website
finder.com.au is one of Australia's leading comparison websites. We are committed to our readers and stands by our editorial principles
We try to take an open and transparent approach and provide a broad-based comparison service. However, you should be aware that while we are an independently owned service, our comparison service does not include all providers or all products available in the market.
Some product issuers may provide products or offer services through multiple brands, associated companies or different labeling arrangements. This can make it difficult for consumers to compare alternatives or identify the companies behind the products. However, we aim to provide information to enable consumers to understand these issues.
We make money by featuring products on our site. Compensation received from the providers featured on our site can influence which products we write about as well as where and how products appear on our page, but the order or placement of these products does not influence our assessment or opinions of them, nor is it an endorsement or recommendation for them.
Products marked as 'Top Pick', 'Promoted' or 'Advertisement' are prominently displayed either as a result of a commercial advertising arrangement or to highlight a particular product, provider or feature. Finder may receive remuneration from the Provider if you click on the related link, purchase or enquire about the product. Finder's decision to show a 'promoted' product is neither a recommendation that the product is appropriate for you nor an indication that the product is the best in its category. We encourage you to use the tools and information we provide to compare your options.
Where our site links to particular products or displays 'Go to site' buttons, we may receive a commission, referral fee or payment when you click on those buttons or apply for a product. You can learn more about how we make money.
When products are grouped in a table or list, the order in which they are initially sorted may be influenced by a range of factors including price, fees and discounts; commercial partnerships; product features; and brand popularity. We provide tools so you can sort and filter these lists to highlight features that matter to you.
