When you join the union, you have access to these AFGE benefits. These benefits are backed by the collective strength of over 10-million members of AFL-CIO unions. By using one or two of the programs, many members save as much as their annual dues.
These Money-Saving Benefits are Available Only to AFGE Members:
Purchasing Power -- Computers, Electronics, Appliances & More Via Payroll Allotment

Are you in need of a new computer or home appliance, but can’t spare the upfront cash? Discover Purchasing Power, an exclusive member benefit that allows you to buy brand name electronics, furniture and more through easy payroll allotment. With no upfront cash or credit check required and 12 months to pay, Purchasing Power gives you a better way to buy!
AFGE members receive an 8% discount every day – the lowest price available to federal government employees. Log in to find out how!
• Easy payroll allotment
Never pay a late fee again! Purchasing Power makes it easy to budget with manageable payments that come out of your paycheck in equal installments over 12 months.
• Convenient product bundles
Many Purchasing Power products are sold as preconfigured bundles that include accessories often sold separately at other retailers, such as anti-virus software, cables, chargers and warranties.
• All-inclusive pricing. No additional fees.
What you see is what you get. You’ll know the total cost up front, which includes the product, warranty, taxes and delivery. There are no additional fees and no down payment required.
• Up front delivery
Unlike a layaway plan, Purchasing Power delivers your merchandise directly to your door after you place an order.
To participate in this AFGE member benefit you must:
• Be at least 18 years old
• Be an active AFGE member
• Have worked for the Federal Government for at least 6 months
• Earn at least $16,000 annually
