Centier Bank (“we”, “us”, “Centier Bank” or “Company”) is offering you the opportunity to invite friends via a Referral Program (“Program”) offered on the web site located at centier.com/invite-a-friend (the “Site”).
1. Binding Agreement. By using the Site or participating in the Program, you are bound by these Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) and indicate your agreement to them. All of the Company's decisions are final and binding.
2. Privacy. The personal information collected, processed and used as part of the Program will be used in accordance with Company’s Privacy Notice, which is available by link on the Site.
3. How the Program Works. First, the Referrer must have an open and active personal checking account with Centier Bank. The primary accountholder must be at least 18 years of age or older in order to receive the reward. Next, you must visit the Site and follow the on-screen instructions to start sending invitations. Once you send an invitation, you become a “Referrer” and will be provided with a unique referral link (“Personal Link”) that allows you to receive the benefit or reward advertised on the Site.
Referred persons (“Friends”) must complete the referral as described in the invitation. To complete the referral, Friends must complete one of the following “Qualifying Requirements” within 90 days of the account being opened: Enroll in e-Statements, Online Banking or Direct Deposit. Friends who currently have an active account or had an active account in the last twelve months are not eligible to be Friends.
The minimum opening deposit is $50 for all personal checking accounts (or $25 for Smart Choice Checking and Veterans Checking accounts). There is no additional deposit required to obtain the $50 reward. The $50 reward cannot be used to satisfy minimum opening deposit requirement. Some checking accounts may earn interest. For example, the annual percentage yield (“APY”) on Centier Interest Checking accounts is 0.01% as of 9/6/2024. There is no minimum balance to obtain this APY. A monthly service charge of $2.00 will be imposed if the depositor does not have direct deposit or e-Statements or a $100.00 minimum daily balance with each checking account except for Interest Checking and Smart Choice Checking. A monthly service charge of $4.00 will be imposed if you do not have direct deposit or e-Statements and a $500.00 minimum daily balance or $1,000.00 average monthly balance with the Interest Checking account. A monthly service charge of $4.00 is applied to the Smart Choice Checking account. Fees could reduce earnings. Rates are subject to change without notice, including after the account is opened. Other terms and conditions apply. This offer does not include money market accounts.
Once the qualifications have been met, the Referrer and Friend will be notified by email that the $50 reward has been deposited into both the referrer and friend accounts. $50 rewards will be treated as a credit to the primary accountholders of the Referrer’s and Friend’s accounts. In the event the Referrer maintains multiple accounts at Centier Bank, Centier Bank may determine, in its discretion, which accounts will be credited with any rewards. Rewards may be reported as income to the IRS on a Form 1099 or W-2, and recipients are solely responsible for all applicable taxes.
Important Privacy Notice: By agreeing to participate in the Program, you agree that the Referrer may be aware that you opened a qualified Centier Bank checking account and made the required deposit when he/she receives a referral reward and consent to the disclosure of such information to the Referrer.
