    Cash Back on purchases$0 Earn 1% Cash Back on purchases (less returns/credits) rounded to the nearest dollar, added to your Account after you use your card. Rounding purchases to the nearest dollar means that you won’t earn a fraction of a penny in Cash Back. For example, a purchase of $0.01-$0.49 rounds to $0.00 (you don’t earn Cash Back), a purchase of $0.50-$0.99 rounds to $1.00 (you earn $0.01 Cash Back), and so on. Account spend limits apply. The Serve Cash Back card is the only prepaid card/Account with 1% Cash Back on purchases, not limited to select merchants or select purchases. Cash Back is typically applied to your Account promptly after your purchase, but could take up to 60 days. Cash Back can be redeemed and used only for future purchases made with your card and cannot be redeemed for cash or otherwise exchanged for value. Subaccounts are not eligible to earn Cash Back. ATM transactions, fees and Serve Online Bill Pay are not purchases and do not earn Cash Back. For full terms and restrictions, see the Cash Back User Agreement.
