The following activities do not count toward earning account rewards: ATM-processed transactions, transfers between accounts, debit card purchases less than $3.00, debit card purchases processed by merchants and received by our bank as ATM transactions, and purchases made with debit cards not issued by our bank. Transactions bundled together by merchants and received by our institution as a single transaction count as a single transaction for the purpose of earning account rewards.

Visit our website www.sturgis.bank or contact one of our Personal Bankers for specific Monthly Qualification Cycle dates.
Reward Information:
When Thrive Cash Back Checking qualifications are met during a Monthly Qualification Cycle, you will receive 5.00% cash back on up to a total of $200.00 PIN-based/signature-based debit card purchases that post and settle to the account during that cycle period. A maximum of $10.00 cash back payments may be earned per Monthly Qualification Cycle. You will receive reimbursements up to an aggregate total of $25.00 for nationwide ATM withdrawal fees incurred within your Thrive Cash Back Checking account during that Monthly Qualification Cycle. We reimburse ATM withdrawal fees based on estimates when the withdrawal information we receive does not identify the ATM withdrawal fee. If you have not received an appropriate reimbursement, we will adjust the reimbursement amount if we receive the transaction receipt within sixty (60) calendar days of the withdrawal transaction. NOTE: ATM fee reimbursements only apply to Thrive Rewards or Thrive Cash Back transactions via ATM; Thrive Savings ATM transaction fees are not reimbursed nor refunded. When your Thrive Cash Back Checking account qualifications are not met, no cash back payments are made and ATM withdrawal fees are not refunded. Cash back payments and nationwide ATM withdrawal fee reimbursements will be credited to your Thrive Cash Back Checking account on the last day of the current statement cycle. Rates, rewards, and bonuses, if any, are variable and may change after account is opened; rates may change without notice to you. No minimum balance is required to earn or receive the account's rewards. Rewards less than a penny cannot be distributed.
