Beyond everyday expenses for your business, anytime you have the opportunity to pay for bills online or with your physical debit card, you also have the opportunity to earn rewards. This includes paying for utilities, operating expenses, service and maintenance, marketing and, advertising, memberships and associations, as well as professional fees.

  2. Leverage employee card usage. If applicable, establish a card program for your business by issuing virtual debit cards to trusted employees. Just don’t forget to ensure that their spending habits align with the needs of your business.
  3. Educate employees on cash back benefits. Ensuring that your employees understand the benefits of using their Grasshopper Business Debit Card may help give your cash back rewards a significant boost. You could even consider offering incentives for cost-conscious spending.
  4. Utilize online and mobile banking. Tracking your spending and rewards in online and mobile banking is a great way to stay informed and help you identify new opportunities to earn cash back.
  5. Review and adjust your strategy. Periodically reviewing your spending habits and adjusting your strategy can help you maximize the value of every transaction and turn the act of spending money into a source of savings.

Bottom Line

With strategic planning and informed decision making, your debit card can be a powerful tool for earning cash back.
