TAMPA, Fla.— Suncoast Credit Union said it has entered into a partnership with ZooTampa at Lowry Park that offers benefits to its 1.2 million members, including a special buy one, get one (BOGO) offer on zoo tickets this summer.
The partnership also makes Suncoast the official credit union of ZooTampa.
Through Sept. 30th, Suncoast Credit Union members can participate in the BOGO promotion by visiting the zoo’s ticket gates and presenting their Suncoast credit or debit card. There is no limit on the number of times members may take advantage of the offer, according to Suncoast.
‘Feels Natural’
“Partnering with ZooTampa feels natural because we both share a dedication to building a strong and rich community,” President and CEO Kevin Johnson said in a statement. “Whether it’s seeing a wild or exotic animal for the first time or learning about how we can enjoy and protect our natural world, we’re thrilled that our members can experience this beloved local landmark at a reduced cost this summer.”
In addition, as the “Official Credit Union of ZooTampa”, kids who attend summer camp at ZooTampa can open a minor savings account with Suncoast matching the opening deposit up to $20 for a total deposit of $40.
Suncoast said it will also serve as the presenting sponsor of a future zoo feature.
‘Quintessential Experience’
“We are very excited to welcome Suncoast Credit Union as a new Zoo partner,” Joe Couceiro, president and CEO of ZooTampa said in a statement. “ZooTampa is a quintessential Tampa Bay experience that is locally cherished and nationally recognized, and we are grateful for the support of community partners like Suncoast Credit Union, who share our vision of inspiring families to become conservation champions. It gives us the opportunity to connect people to wildlife in a new way.”
