New Member Offer

*New member offers are managed by Cashback+ within Digital Banking. To qualify for an offer’s reward, each offer must be activated and completed within the eligibility period. The eligibility period begins on the date of membership enrollment and continues through the end of the third full calendar month. For example, if membership begins on January 31, offers remain valid through April 30 (90 days). If membership begins on January 1, offers are valid through April 30 (120 days). The expiration of each offer is clearly displayed within CashBack+. Each offer is earned independently. Completion of all offers is not required to receive an individual reward. Any activity after the eligibility period ends will not qualify. All offers, requirements, and rewards are subject to change without notice. 

Rewards will typically be credited to the member’s Cashback+ wallet on the 3rd business day after the end of the month in which all offer requirements were fulfilled, but no later than the 5th business day. For example, if an offer is activated and the requirement is met on January 15 then the reward will be credited no later than February 5. If an offer is activated and the requirement is met on January 31, then the reward will be credited no later than February 5. The new membership account(s) must be open, active, and in good standing at the time rewards are credited in order to receive the reward. Cashback+ balances can be redeemed or transferred to a Stanford FCU account via Digital Banking. 

New member offers are not available to existing members or Stanford FCU employees. New member offers are limited to one per member and are not applicable to additionally opened or joint accounts. No offer may be combined with any other Stanford FCU promotion. Any taxes owed on earned rewards are the sole responsibility of the recipient. Stanford FCU will report rewards to applicable state and federal agencies as required by law. Membership eligibility and a valid U.S. phone number are required.

**APY= Annual Percentage Yield. Rates are subject to change without notice. High Yield Spending Account interest is determined on the last day of each preceding month. If all requirements are met by month-end, then the interest will be paid at the current Qualified Rates up to $100,000 and > $100,000 on the average daily balances on the last day of the following month based on the average daily balance of the account for that month. If the requirements are not met by the last day of the preceding month, then the interest will be paid at the current Non-Qualified Rate on the last day of the following month based on the average daily balance of the account for that month. Limit one High Yield Spending account per primary member. 
Monthly Requirements to earn the Qualified Rate: (a) receive at least $5,000 in combined payroll direct deposits in the member's Stanford FCU accounts, and (b) spend a minimum $1,000 on the member's combined Stanford FCU debit and credit cards with the same primary account owner as the High Yield Spending Account. Payroll direct deposit is defined as recurring ACH payments from your employer or the Social Security Administration. Other deposits such as checks, transfers, Venmo, Zelle^® and PayPal do not qualify. Deposits and purchases must post by the last day of each month to qualify. 
Grace period: During the first two months of opening a new High Yield Spending Account the interest will be earned at the current Qualified Rate, and the account requirements at the end of the second month will be used to determine the rate paid on balances in the third month. Existing checking accounts that convert to a High Yield Spending Account will not have a grace period.
