FAQ
Can you further explain the 2.50% and 1.25% Reward Structure?
Certainly! All net purchases, up to $5,000 every billing cycle, will earn our industry-leading 2.50% cash back rewards. Any amounts over $5,000 will earn rewards at 1.25% without affecting previous rewards you’ve already earned. Once your next billing cycle begins you will begin to earn 2.50% again up to another $5,000. This means you could earn 2.50% on up to $60,000 in purchases per year!
Spend Example: $6,000 in net purchases over one Billing Cycle
| Spend Tier | Earn Rate | Cashback Earned |
|---|---|---|
| First $5,000 | 2.5% | $5,000 x 2.50% = $125.00 |
| $5,001 – $6,000 | 1.25% | $1,000 x 1.25% = $12.50 |
How do I redeem my cashback?
Always Cash Rewards can be redeemed, on-demand, soon as they are available! It’s easy to redeem! Simply log on to online banking, click on “redeem” within your card and choose one of the following methods:

How long does it take to receive my card?
Your physical card should arrive within 7-10 days. However, generally within 2 days of your card being approved an option will appear in online banking to digitally add your card to your wallet! This means you can spend and start earning rewards before your physical card arrives.

Balance transfers are not permitted on internal HSFCU cards however, you may request a balance transfer from a non-HSFCU card with no balance transfer fee. This may be done via card services in online banking, visiting a branch or contacting Cardholder Services at (866-820-6821).
