Frequently Asked Questions
What is Share Aloha?
Share Aloha is a fun, new program that allows cardholders like you to support your favorite organizations with the chance to win one of the thousands of prizes each time you make an eligible purchase on an eligible Gather FCU Visa® Debit Card.
Entrants agree to automatically Round-Up eligible purchases to the next dollar for the chance to instantly win a prize. 50% of each Round-Up will be allocated toward the prize pool, with the other 50% allocated toward a charitable contribution. There is a free, alternate method of entry which does not require a purchase. However, free entries don’t add to the prize pool! For more information on Alternative Method of Entry (AMOE) visit the “Do I have to make a purchase to participate” section below.

How does rounding up work?
When you link your eligible payment card, we automatically “Round Up” each of your qualifying transactions to the next dollar amount. For example, if you spend $17.83 at a restaurant on your linked payment card, we will automatically add 17 cents to your purchase. 50% of each Round-Up will be allocated toward the prize pool, with the other 50% allocated toward a charitable contribution.
The Share Aloha Program runs in accordance with the following Terms of Service.
