Quick guides
How to earn cashback
Earning the 15% cashback is easy! Just follow these simple steps:
- Keep your account active and updated
- Use your Free+ card at least once per billing cycle (any amount counts!)
- Eligible transactions: may be completed as local, international, and/or online retail transaction (shopping, dining, etc.)
- Not included: Fees or Credit/Debit adjustments
- Pay at least the Minimum Amount Due (MAD) on time as indicated in your credit card monthly billing statement.
- The Interest Cashback shall be computed as 15% of the previous month's Finance Charge.
To illustrate:
Statement Cycle | Previous Balance | (-) Payments | (+) Purchases and Advances | (+) Finance Charges and Other Fees | (+) Late Payment Charges | Amount Due | Minimum Amount Due (MAD) | Payment Due Date | Total Available Interest Cashback |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
February 15 (1st SOA) | 0.00 | 0.00 | 2,000.00 | 0.00 | 0.00 | 2,000.00 | 850.00 | March 7 | 0.00 |
March 15 (2nd SOA) | 2,000.00 | 850.00 (paid 3/1) | 1,750.00 | 43.25 | 0.00 | 2,943.25 | 850.00 | April 4 | 6.49 |
April 16 | 2,943.25 | 2,543.17 | 0.00 | 49.60 | 0.00 | 449.68 | 449.68 | May 6 | 0.00 |
May 15 | 449.68 | 107.44 | 0 | 10.54 | 0.00 | 352.78 | 352.78 | June 4 | 0.00 |
- In this example, Cardholder earned Php 6.49 worth of Interest Cashback which is computed as:
- Php 43.25 Finance Charge x 15% cashback = Php 6.49
- The Php 6.49 worth of Interest Cashback shall reflect in the following month’s SOA (March 15 SOA).
- Because there is no purchase posted for the April 16 SOA, the Cardholder is not eligible to earn an interest cashback.
- Interest Cashback earned cannot be transferred to any other person.
- Interest Cashback accumulation will be stopped for blocked accounts due to lost cards from the date of report of loss. Transactions made with the replacement card will resume Interest Cashback accumulation.
- Fraudulent earning or redemption of Interest Cashback may result in forfeiture of available Interest Cashback as well as cancellation of the Cardholder's credit card.
- Interest Cashback will accumulate into one Interest Cashback pool and will not be pooled together with other cashbacks earned from other BPI products.
