BankAmericard® Credit Card

No Over-the-Limit Fee. You won’t pay an over-the-limit fee if your credit card balance goes over your credit limit.

For Example:

Let’s say your credit card limit is $5,000. One month, you spend more than your limit on the card. Some credit card companies will charge you between $25 and $35 for this mistake. If your card advertises no overlimit fee, you won’t be charged a penalty for your spending.

This credit card comes with a No Penalty APR. You won’t default to a higher APR if your payment arrives on or after day 60.

Overdraft Protection. Are you worried that you may spend more than your limit on your credit card? If you sign up for overdraft protection, you’ll be fine. All you have to do is link your credit card to your checking account. The excess amount will be drawn from there, and your transaction will be approved.

Extended Warranty Insurance. This credit card extends the original manufacturer’s warranty of an item. You get the benefits of an extended warranty without purchasing the store’s expensive extended warranty.

Imagine that thing you bought at full price goes on sale the next week. With this credit card’s Price Protection benefit you can get back the difference between the sales price and what you paid. You can only claim this benefit for the exact item: same model; same manufacturer; same everything.

For Example:
Let’s say you bought a round-trip ticket to Orlando for $750, but two weeks later, the airline has a sale. Everything is the same, except it now costs $500. If you had a price protection guarantee on your credit card, your credit card company would refund you $250. Contact your credit card company to find out specifics on how to get the money back.

Emergency Cash Advance. If your credit card is lost, damaged or stolen, you can ask the credit card company for some emergency cash. They will authorize the payment, which you can collect from a designated financial institution.

Emergency Card Replacement. Whether your card is lost, stolen or damaged, the credit card company can provide help as soon as next day. It doesn’t matter if you’re still on vacation, the credit card company will mail a replacement to you wherever you are. This will be done free of charge.

Bank of America® Credit Card With Free Credit Score.

This credit card may give your credit score every month. You don’t have to pay for it.

Identity Theft Protection. This monitors the internet to see if your personal information is being bought, sold or traded online. This covers your credit card information, driver’s license, social security number, or other sensitive or personally identifiable information.

Zero Liability. If you didn’t buy it, don’t pay for it. You will not be held responsible for any unauthorized charges that appear on your account.

Promo Rate. This credit card comes with a promotional “promo” rate, which is usually significantly lower than your regular interest rate. This is only valid for the first few months after you open the credit card, then the regular rate applies.

For Example:

Let’s say your credit card has an introductory rate of 0% APR for 15 months. When that expires, you pay the regular interest rate (22.49%). To maximize your promotional rate benefit, your balance should be paid off before the end of the introductory period. Failure to do so will mean that the interest rate on the remainder of your balance will skyrocket.

Zero Introductory APR for Purchases. With this credit card, you won’t have to pay interest on purchases within the specified period of time. After this period the usual APR applies.

Zero Introductory APR for Balance Transfers. With this credit card, the APR for the balance(s) you transfer will be 0% for the limited time-frame. After this promotional period ends, the regular interest rate applies.

For example, a credit card has an introductory offer of 0% APR for 12 months on balance transfers. The regular interest rate is 18.99%. You must transfer your balances completely to the new card by the 45^th day from opening the card. Those balances will have no interest applied until the end of the 12^th month. Balances that remain after the 12^th month, or transferred after the initial 45 days will have the regular APR applied.
