Peanut Butter Student Loan Payment Program We understand the stress of having to pay student loan debt and that is why

the EAA offers a student loan payment program. This benefit is administered by Peanut Butter. The EAA will pay $50.00 towards your principle on student loans. The EAA’s contribution is applied directly to your student loan as a secondary payment, reducing your repayment period and saving on interest. To be eligible for this benefit, you must be a full-time employee with a personal student loan. There is a 90-day waiting period from your date of hire to begin receiving payments. The loan must be in the employee’s name. The student loan must be in good standing and employees must continue to make their monthly loan payments on time each month. The EAA will not make contributions to deferred loans. The EAA will send the contribution to Peanut Butter each month, who will then send it directly to your servicer. To sign up, create your account online and add your student loans for verification by visiting the Peanut Butter Registration Page. You will need to provide a copy of your most recent student loan statement when you register.
