This credit card program is issued and administered by Bank of America, N.A. The NEA Credit Card Program has been developed for NEA members and their families only. Parents, spouses (or domestic partner) and children are eligible family members. Absolutely no membership dues are used to market this program.

Security Benefit pays an annual fee to NEA MB for the exclusive right to offer the products in the NEA Retirement Program and to provide marketing, advisory, fiduciary, and other services to NEA Members and for the NEA Retirement Program. In 2024 the annual fee amounted to approximately $4 million. Receipt of the annual fee creates a potential conflict of interest and gives NEA MB an incentive to partner with Security Benefit to make the Program available to NEA Members. To address this conflict, NEA MB conducts on-going due diligence on Security Benefit to ensure that NEA Members benefit from the products and services offered by Security Benefit. NEA MB also discloses this relationship to NEA members in educational, marketing, and promotional materials. You may wish to consider this arrangement and any possible conflict of interest when considering and evaluating any communications or recommendations relating to NEA Retirement products.
