Loans Built for Bruins

Better banking for Bruins means offering the right loan to fit your needs, when you need it. Wescom can help you borrow smarter at every stage of your financial journey.

Wescom Bruin Edge and Bruin Choice Visa® Credit Cards

Reward yourself with the credit cards that were made for Bruins:

Both cards earn 5% cash back on select UCLA and Rose Bowl stadium purchases — plus, 1.5% cash back on everything else — and redeem for rewards such as cash back, gift cards, and UCLA non-profit donations.

Not a member yet? You can still apply for either credit card – then we’ll establish your membership during the application process by opening a Wescom Savings Account and depositing $1 into that account on your behalf. The $1 into a Wescom Savings Account is a requirement of Wescom membership. Membership eligibility is required.

Apply Now

Cash back offer is available through the redemption of MyRewards Points. MyRewards is a free program that awards you 1.5 points for every dollar you spend on purchases. Select UCLA, ASUCLA, and Rose Bowl Stadium venue purchases may be eligible to earn 5 points per dollar spent at select merchants (see wescom.org/bruincardbenefits for eligible merchants). MyRewards Points can be redeemed for cash back, gift cards, merchandise, travel, and other rewards, which may be changed without notice. Redemption values may vary. Balance transfers and cash advances do not earn MyRewards Points.
