How It Works
- Use your Royal credit card to make a purchase.
- Earn one reward point for every dollar spent.
- Redeem points for travel, gift cards, statement credits, and more!
Program Details
- Any type of purchase transaction, whether you’re shopping at a brick-and-mortar retail store or using your card online, earns reward points.
- There is no annual limit to the maximum number of points you can earn.
- Balance transfers, wire transfers, card fees, interest charges, and cash advances do not earn reward points.
- Pending transactions or transactions that don’t post to your card account also don’t earn points.
- If you return or cancel a purchase that earned points, the points from that transaction will be removed from your reward points balance.
- The points you earn each month are posted to your rewards account by the 10th day of the following month. Points expire 5 years from the end of the month in which they are posted.
- If you close your card account with Royal, your points balance is reset and points can no longer be redeemed. If you are issued a new card because your previous card is lost or stolen, your points balance will transfer to the new card.

For business cardholders, uChoose Rewards® are connected to the business’s parent billing account. Business credit cards allow individual cardholders to have child credit card accounts under the parent account. Only business online banking users who have access to the parent billing account for the business credit card can view and redeem business credit card rewards. Follow the same access steps as personal cardholders above.
uChoose Rewards® points balances are also printed on personal credit card statements and business billing account credit card statements.
How Can I Redeem My uChoose Rewards®?
Once you access the rewards website as described above, you’ll see the option to redeem your uChoose Rewards® points. You can select what type of reward to receive from the available options, including statement credits, prepaid gift cards, or merchandise and travel items.
In some cases, you may be able to pay the difference between the cost of an item and the amount of points you have. For example, if you are 1,000 points short of being able to purchase trip tickets, you may be able to select the reward and enter your payment information to cover the difference. There are limits to how much of the difference you can pay for without using points.
You can also redeem uChoose Rewards® by phone at 800-390-6739.
