* All your APRs may increase if you default under any Card Agreement that you have with us because you fail to make a payment to us or any other creditor when due, you exceed your credit limit, or you make a payment to us that is not honored by your bank.
Variable rate information
Your APRs may vary. The rate for purchases and balance transfers is determined monthly by adding 5.99% to the Prime Rate.**
** The Prime Rate used to determine your APRs is the U.S. Prime Rate published in The Wall Street Journal on the last business day of each month.
Your cash advance rate is determined monthly by adding 14.99% to the Prime Rate, but such cash advance rate will never be lower than 19.99%.
The default rate is determined monthly by adding up to 23.99% to the Prime Rate.***
*** Factors considered in determining your default rate may include the length of time your account with us has been open, the existence, seriousness and timing of defaults under any Card Agreement that you have with us, and other indications of usage and performance.
All account rates, fees, and other cost information disclosed above are subject to change at any time in accordance with applicable law and the Card Agreement that will be sent with your card.
We allocate your payments to pay off low APR balances before paying off higher APR balances. That means your savings will be reduced by making transactions that are subject to higher APRs.
