Frequently asked questions
Can I switch which chequing account my prepaid business Visa card is connected to?
No, we don't support this. Your card will pull from the Business chequing account that you requested the card from.
I didn't get the correct amount of cash back. What should I do?
First, we recommend checking if the purchase has settled. Settled transaction amounts can change, causing your final cash back amount to adjust accordingly. Your final cashback amount may vary from what was initially displayed in your activity history.
Next, we recommend checking if a refund was recently processed. We'll reverse the cash back amount you received from the original purchase.
If you still believe you didn't get the right amount, please contact our support team.
What happens if I get a refund?
We'll reverse the cash back. The cash back reversal amount will be calculated based on the refunded amount.
Which accounts can’t I redeem my cash back into?
Cash back can be redeemed into most accounts except for the following:
- RESP
- RRIF
- Spousal RRIF
Can I set up my cash back rewards to redeem automatically?
No. You must redeem your cash back manually in the app. This gives you greater control over when and how you receive your cash back rewards!
Do I need to wait for a minimum amount to accumulate before I can redeem? Is there a limit to how often I can redeem?
You can redeem your cash back as often as you’d like and for as little or as much as you’d like.
Can I redeem my cash back directly towards paying off my balance?
Not directly, but you can move your cash back into your chequing account from which you pay your statement.
What's considered a cash-like transaction?
Cash-like transactions are defined as any monetary transaction that's similar to cash or easily convertible into cash. Examples of cash-like transactions include, but aren't limited to:
- Wire transfers
- Foreign currency purchases
- Money orders
- Gaming transactions (such as off-track betting or gaming chips)
- Buying remote stored value (like prepaid cards)
- Wholesale and retail purchases for gemstones, precious metals, watches, and jewelry
If you believe your purchase should receive rewards, please contact our support team with a copy of your receipt, and we'll credit your correct cash back.
Can I stack the merchant reward boost with other rewards?
Yes. This boost stacks with other active rewards, such as the 5% cash back deposit boost.
