More than two dozen credit unions from around the country received top honors as winners of the 2015 Card Marketing Awards, according to Card Services for Credit Unions (CSCU), which runs the competition.

The 28 awards were given for best overall credit card campaign, best debit card campaign, best community outreach and best portfolio consulting services. The awards were also grouped by category: Small ($0-$249 million in assets), medium ($250-$499 million) and large (over $500 million).

"The annual CAMEO awards showcase the year's most successful marketing campaigns, which represent major drivers of our members' successes," CSCU Portfolio Consulting Services Manager Barney Moore said. "As the Solutions Conference explores the most pertinent topics affecting the credit union industry, it's invaluable for attendees to understand the marketing strategies that have worked for their peers."

Seventy-five credit unions submitted 104 marketing campaigns for consideration in the competition, CSCU said.

The winners will be honored at CSCU's 2015 Solutions Conference April 29 to May 3 in St. Petersburg, Fla.

They will receive free admission to the conference; category winners also receive travel funds to attend the conference.
