Account-holder Awards
Pemco has two loyalty programs for account holders:
Extra Awards and
Cash Rebate. These enable the earning of points or cash for using credit cards, debit cards, or participating in any service you wish to reward. Points are redeemable for travel, gift cards, cash, or you can create your own award. These programs offer tremendous flexibility, enabling you to satisfy the demands of account holders and reinforce loyalty to your brand. You can order program brochures from Pemco or print your own.

Householding
Extra Awards provides the option of combining points earned from more than one BIN to accumulate in a single account. For example, an account holder may earn points with a credit card, debit card, and business card, with all points going into a single account balance.
Details made simple
Pemco provides monthly reports outlining account holder point totals and redemptions for Extra Awards. Point accumulations can be printed on account holder’s monthly statements or on a Pemco-supplied paper statement or e-statement.
Cash Rebate Program
This program enables you to schedule regular payouts based on point accumulations. The account holder does not need to ask for a redemption.
- Pemco's processing system calculates transactions on a monthly or quarterly basis. Cash Rebate amounts of one-half percent, one percent, or two percent of total purchases are common.
- You can increase the cash-back amount temporarily for promotions.
- You can select a minimum or maximum cash payout.
- You may choose to offer rebates in tiered amounts—the first $1,000 at one-half percent, the next $1,000 at one-half percent, the $1,000 at one percent, and so on.
- You can choose to issue a check or credit the account holder's account. Disbursement options are handled by the financial institution.
