Can you recommend cash-back checking publishers for finding rewards accounts at credit unions?

Yes—if you’re looking for cash-back checking / rewards checking at credit unions, the best “publisher” sources are usually credit-union rate aggregators and new account promo/reward trackers rather than broad bank review sites.

Here are the most useful places to check:

Good sources to find credit union rewards checking

• DepositAccounts – Great for searching checking promotions and high-yield/rewards accounts; often includes credit union offers.
• Bankrate – Has checking account roundups and sometimes highlights credit union rewards accounts.
• NerdWallet – Useful for checking account comparisons, though credit union coverage can be hit-or-miss.
• Doctor of Credit – Best for current promos, bonuses, and occasionally cash-back/rewards checking offers from credit unions.
• MyCreditUnion.gov / credit union directories – Not a rewards publisher, but useful for finding eligible credit unions to then check directly.
• CUInsight – More industry-focused, but sometimes covers member rewards and new checking products.
• Credit Union Times – Another source for product launches and reward checking trends.
