What is a cycle?
A cycle is approximately one calendar month. However, it will vary depending upon when the last business day of the month falls. A cycle is from the last business day of the previous month to the second to the last business day of the current month. Qualifying transactions must post to the account before the end of the business day.

PLEASE NOTE: Whether you use your check card as a PIN-based transaction or credit-based and sign your name, when your transaction is final is dependent on when the retailer completes the transaction. In other words, you buy dinner on July 25 but the restaurant does not complete, or post, the transaction until August 5.

For data processing purposes, we go by when the transaction is complete. It doesn't happen often but sometimes members think they met the deadline for doing a check card transaction only to find the retailer didn't complete it until after the deadline. Just remember, those transactions get you a "head start" on the next month's total.

In addition, for your direct deposit to count towards your cycle requirement, it must process prior to the cycle end date. This date is determined by each employer’s internal process. Please consult your payroll department/contact for your end of month processing dates.
