Customer Rewards Increased Up to 3 Percent
“Customers have told us they want to get rewarded for what they use their cards for the most, such as gas and groceries, and office supplies for small business customers,” said Consumer Banking Products Executive Susan Faulkner. “We have developed a solution that sets us apart from the competition by giving customers more value in the spending categories that matter most to them.”In addition, the BankAmericard Cash Rewards card includes a 10 percent bonus when customers deposit their cash rewards into their Bank of America® checking or savings account. Both cards have no expiration on rewards.
The new BankAmericard Cash Rewards credit card includes:
- One percent cash back on all purchases.
- Two percent cash back on grocery store purchases.
- Three percent on gas station purchases.
- Customers earn the 2 percent and 3 percent cash back on gas and grocery purchases up to the first $1,500 per quarter. After that, they continue to earn 1 percent on purchases.
The new Cash Rewards for Business MasterCard credit card offers:
- One percent on all purchases.
- Two percent on all restaurant purchases.
- Three percent on office supply store, gas station and computer network service purchases.
- No cap on purchase categories.
“These improvements demonstrate that Bank of America is responding to what our customers want by providing easy-to-use, clear and straightforward solutions that they value,” said Laurie Readhead, Retail Banking executive. “This new program gives customers a simple way to earn additional cash back by giving us more of their business.”
