Trademarks and Disclaimers

Rebate is earned on a tiered basis on card purchases less returns, and not on cash advances (including by Convenience Cheques), balance transfers, fees, interest, payments or on net purchases over $50,000 per year. Rebate is credited to the CIBC Dividend Platinum card account when the December account statement is issued, as long as account is then in good standing (otherwise the rebate is cancelled). Dividend Dollars are calculated as follows: on the first $3,000 in net annual purchases your rebate is 0.5%; on your next $12,000 in net annual purchases your rebate would be 1.0%; on your next $20,000 in net annual purchases your rebate would be 1.5%; on your next $15,000 in annual net purchases your rebate would be 2.0%. (See Card Package (distributed when card is issued) for full details.)
