On Deadline: ScoreCard Tracks Rewards Points

Credit unions are using a ScoreCard to add up bonus rewards points for credit and debit card purchases.

For Hudson Valley FCU, where members earn a point for each $2 spent using a Visa check card, ScoreCard helps them track the points, which are redeemable for merchandise, travel and discounts.

The free card, provided by the former Certegy unit of Fidelity National Information Services, also provides extended warranty on products, an identity theft insurance, and a research service for additional purchases.
