  5. Service Purchases and Transfers


Retirement benefits are predicated on three factors; final average salary, a multiplier, and service credit. Service credit is earned while working in a benefit-eligible position. Service credit may also be transferred from other state retirement plans, and may also be purchased. All such transfers and purchases are subject to state law.

This page provides information for MPERS members interested in transferring or purchasing service credit. These actions can significantly impact your retirement benefits, and we encourage members to consider making purchases earlier in their careers to maximize value. If you have questions about your benefits or need assistance with the process, please contact one of our benefit counselors for personalized support.

If you have questions about your benefits or need help navigating the process, please contact one of our benefit counselors. We’re here to help!
