Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to questions that you have about the PNC TotalRewards Program are available on PNC.com/TotalRewards, in Online and Mobile Banking, by calling 1-888-PNC-BANK (1-888-762-2265) or visiting your local branch.
Once enrolled, you will keep your Select Tier and Program benefits for at least a year if you maintain a Qualifying Checking account. Annually, on your enrollment anniversary, we will evaluate your 90-calendar-day Average Eligible Balance to determine if you meet the requirements for your current Select Tier. If you don’t, you’ll be notified, and we will give you a 3-calendar-month Grace Period to increase your Average Eligible Balance to meet the requirements. At the end of the three-month period, if you still don’t meet the Average Eligible Balance requirement, we will place you in a new tier or unenroll you from the Program and notify you of the change.
Select Tier members could enjoy great Program benefits like:
- A Savings Boost on the standard interest rate for eligible consumer savings and money market accounts. Your savings works harder for you with this added boost.
- Up to $5,000 cash bonus on newly established eligible managed PNC Wealth Management accounts.
- A quarterly credit card rewards bonus. Earn extra rewards on select PNC credit cards.
- 0.025% quarterly cash rewards on the average daily principal loan balance on existing and new PNC auto loans.
You can reach a higher Select Tier when you increase your Average Eligible Balance to meet the requirements of the Tier: $100,000 for the Gold Tier and $500,000 for the Platinum Tier.

For more details on products eligible for rewards, including additional eligibility requirements, see Terms and Conditions.
Eligible auto loans, CHELOCs, and mortgages provide a cash benefit that is deposited into a PNC checking, savings, or money market account. When you select a Designated Account for cash rewards benefit delivery, you are choosing where this cash will be deposited either now or in the future.
If you are a co-borrower on one of these accounts, the benefit will be deposited into the designated account of the borrower with the highest Select Tier, or if the Select Tier is the same, the borrower named first on the loan account.
We evaluate your overall Program eligibility at two different intervals:
- We check monthly to confirm that you maintain a Qualifying Checking account.
- Annually, on your PNC TotalRewards Program anniversary, we check to determine if you meet the 90-calendar-day Average Eligible Balance or maintain your status as a PNC employee or PNC Military Banking client.
If you’re no longer eligible for the Program, you’ll enter a 3-calendar-month Grace Period. At the end of the Grace Period, if you still fail to meet the requirements, you will be moved out of the Select Tier and unenrolled from the Program. If you were unenrolled because of your 90-calendar-day Average Eligible Balance, we will continue to monitor and will move you back into the Select Tier of the Program automatically once you meet the balance requirement (and if you still have a Qualifying Checking account).
