You will earn unlimited 2% cash back for all non-PIN debit card purchases you make for the first 90 days starting on the day that your account is opened.

After the first 90 days, when your Current Account Balance at the start of the day is $5,000 or more, you'll earn unlimited 2% cash back for all non-PIN debit card purchases you make on that day. When your Current Account Balance at the start of the day is less than $5,000, you'll earn unlimited 1% cash back on all non-PIN debit card purchases you make on that day. To determine your starting Current Account Balance, we use your closing balance after all settled transactions from the previous business day. Pending purchases and transactions are not included in your Current Account Balance.

If you choose to earn coffee or music perks instead of cash back perks, you'll earn:

Music: For every $100 in non-PIN debit card purchases, you will earn 2 songs when your Current Account Balance at the start of the day is $5,000 or more or 1 song when it is below $5,000.
Coffee: For every $200 in non-PIN debit card purchases, you will earn 2 cups of coffee when your Current Account Balance at the start of the day is $5,000 or more or 1 cup when it is below $5,000.
