Earn Rewards with Our New Customer Referral Program

February 3, 2025

At First Bank and Trust Company, we’ve spent 45 years building strong relationships with our customers, and we couldn’t be more appreciative of the trust you’ve placed in us as your go-to financial partner. We’ve seen firsthand how loyal and enthusiastic you are about our products and services. That’s why we’re excited to reward your advocacy with our new Customer Referral Program – powered by ReferLive!

With this program, referring your friends and family has never been more rewarding. When someone you refer opens a new personal checking account and completes the qualifying tasks, both of you will receive a $50 Visa® Reward Card*. It’s our way of saying thanks for helping us grow our First Bank and Trust family.

 

How You Earn Rewards

We believe that good things are worth sharing, including the many benefits of banking with First Bank and Trust. That’s why we’re offering an opportunity to earn rewards when you refer friends and family to open a personal checking account with us. It’s simple – both you and the person you refer can each earn $50 when they open an account and complete a couple of qualifying activities.

 

Step 1: Register

To get started, sign up for our Customer Referral Program at referlive.com/firstbank. Once you’re enrolled, you can begin sharing the offer with your network.

Step 2: Refer

Invite your family and friends to join the First Bank and Trust family! You can do this by sharing your unique referral link through email, text, or directly on social media. All your friend or family member needs to do is open a personal checking account, complete the qualifying activities, and you’ll both be on your way to earning rewards.

Step 3: Get Rewarded

Once your referral completes the qualifying activities, both you and your friend will receive a $50 Visa® Reward Card! The activities are simple: your friend just needs to enroll in eStatements and either complete one (1) direct deposit of $500 or more, or make ten (10) or more debit card purchases (excluding ATM transactions). The more people you refer, the more you can earn – up to $500 per calendar year.

 

What Are You Waiting For?

The referral process is quick, easy, and rewarding! It’s our way of thanking you for being such an important part of our success over the years. Sign up today, refer a friend or family member, and start earning your Visa® Reward Cards!
