Here are some helpful tips regarding your incentive –
● For the most efficient service, email our Incentives Team at XXX with any questions.
● Allow up to 5 business days after your participation to receive your incentive redemption email

the incentive code email does not go to your spam.
● Your payment will be delivered via email with instructions for claiming your Digital Visa® Prepaid
Card. You must claim your card within 3 months from the date these instructions are sent via
email. If you do not claim your card within that time frame, a virtual prepaid card will be
generated for you, which will be accessible through the original payment email link.
● Please pay close attention to the valid through date on your redemption code. This is not a gift
card, rather it is a prepaid debit card and therefore subject to expiration.
● Once you receive this email, you will be given a few redemption options;
1. Redeem for a Virtual Visa reward card which allows you to make purchases immediately
online
2. A Physical Visa Reward card mailed to the address you provide

●
