The Financial Rewards® Visa® Platinum Plus®, issued by
FIA Card Services, N.A., is designed for those with very good
credit who plan to take advantage of the cash back reward
program.
Through the reward program, cardholders earn
one point for every $100 in net purchases per billing cycle.
Cardholders receive five bonus points after their first purchase,
and they receive another five points for every $2,500 in balance
transfers per billing cycle (up to 25 points per billing cycle).
One point is equal to $1 in rebates, and cardholders can earn up to
600 points per calendar year. Points are redeemable in 25-point
increments (minimum 25 points) and can be redeemed for cash back
checks, direct deposits made to the cardholder's Bank of America
checking or savings account, or reductions in the cardholder's
purchase APR.
The rate for purchases and balance
transfers is reasonable for a reward card, and there is a 0%
introductory offer that applies to balance transfers and cash
advance checks for six billing cycles. This card also has no annual
fee.
Aside from the reward program, cardholders can
expect common benefits such as online banking services and Total
Security Protection®.
Therefore, those who plan to
take advantage of the introductory offer, the reward program, and
the various benefits may find the Financial Rewards® Visa®
Platinum Plus® to be a suitable option.
