*Between November 15, 2024 and January 15, 2025, Capitol Federal® will provide a one-time statement credit of $50 for purchases made at merchants who are assigned Visa merchant category codes that include discount stores; grocery stores; and warehouse clubs. Purchases must be made with your mobile wallet (Apple Pay or Google Pay) using your True Blue® Debit Card. Even though a merchant or some of the items that it sells may appear to fit within one of these categories, the merchant may not have a merchant code in that category. Capitol Federal has no control over a merchant’s category code(s) and purchases made at a merchant not in one of the categories listed above do not qualify for the incentive statement credit. Statement credits may take up to 6 weeks to post. To qualify for the one-time statement credit, you must make 5 separate purchases, each for $100 or more using a single CapFed debit card loaded to your mobile wallet which are settled between Nov. 15, 2024 and Jan. 15, 2025 Transactions are considered settled when the funds are debited from your account.  Capitol Federal has no control over the date that a merchant processes settlement for your transaction.
