²Cash Back rewards offer 1.00% cash-back on all Qualified Purchases made by eligible Innovator Business Checking account holders. To qualify for the Cash Back reward of 1.00% cash-back in an Innovator Business Checking account, account holders must meet all requirements and a transaction must be deemed as a Qualified Purchase. Clients are required to maintain an average balance of $10,000 or more within the calendar month in their Innovator Business Checking account and the account must remain open, active, and in good standing to participate in the program, meaning: No NSF (non-sufficient funds) items during the preceding twelve calendar months. Grasshopper Bank reserves the right to modify the description of “good standing” at any time.
Qualified Purchases are signature-based purchases made with a Debit Card from an Innovator Business Checking Account. To make a signature-based purchase, select “credit” rather than debit at point-of-sale kiosks. The “credit” option is most often pre-selected when making purchases online using a debit card. Online subscription payments may not be considered signature-based purchases. The payment transaction type (signature-based or other) is ultimately decided by the merchant and how the transaction is transmitted to Grasshopper Bank at the time of processing. We reserve the right to determine if a transaction was a Qualified Purchase, and to establish additional types of Qualified Purchases that could be made available in a variety of ways. Any goods or services purchased with the Debit Card issued by Grasshopper Bank that are returned or otherwise credited to the account are not qualified purchases. Unlawful purchases and purchases of currency, cash or cash equivalents (including, without limitation, currency from the U.S. Mint, Travelers Cheques, gift cards, Cryptocurrency, Casino Chips, Peer to Peer Payments, prepaid debit cards, account openings, loan payments, or other cash equivalents) made with a Debit Card issued by Grasshopper Bank are not Qualified Purchases. We may require documentation to validate that certain purchases are Qualified Purchases. If you or the Bank closes the account for any reason before the end of the statement cycle, you will forfeit all rewards accrued through your linked Debit Card during that statement cycle.
