America's Credit Union is here for you during these times of uncertainty. If you're charging more than usual to your credit card you could be racking up unnecessary fees and debt. We can help!
At ACU we promote sound, financially responsible decision making and money management. Typically, that means not buying things on credit. But life happens, we get it! Sometimes you do need a Credit Card for important and/or large purchases. They're also great to have in case of an emergency.
Credit Cards are also good for building or repairing credit. If you're looking to improve your credit, using a Credit Card with a low, fixed Annual Percentage Rate (APR) responsibly can be a great strategy.
No matter your reason for having a Credit Card we strive to offer the best options with the best benefits to our members. Whereas many card issuers may offer one or two of the following benefits, we offer them all!
Low Fixed Rates. No marketing gimmicks and promotional rates that leave you with a pile of debt here! It's a low, fixed-rate you can depend on.
NO Balance Transfer Fees. You can transfer your balances from higher rate or variable rate cards to ACU with no fee!
NO Cash Advance Fees. Yes, you can request a cash advance with no fee, even from an ATM! It's rare to find a card like ours that does that!
NO Annual Fees. What is an annual fee anyway? Why do other credit card issuers charge you for having their card? We don't do that at ACU!
1% Cashback on Purchases. If you charge more than $3,000 on your card in a calendar year you'll receive 1% cashback on your purchases. No categories to remember or types of purchases to manage. Simply 1% cashback on every purchase when you spend $3,000 or more in a year!
*Requires a 20% deposit as collateral.
The VISA Classic Secured Credit Card is perfect for those looking to repair and/or build credit. A "secured credit card" means that you'll have a line of credit up to the amount of money you deposit as collateral (max. $4,999). ACU will also hold a 20% security deposit in your Savings Account, i.e. if you apply for a $500 credit line you'll need $500 as collateral for the card and 20% of $500, which is $100, as a security deposit. You'll deposit $600 in total to secure the $500 line of credit.
The VISA Classic Credit Card is great for those who like to carry a card for emergency reasons or to make small to mid-sized purchases.
For those needing a higher line of credit for larger purchases, the VISA Gold Credit Card is for you. The added benefits are also great for those who travel often.
A Note About Cash Back Rewards: If you don't spend over $3,000 in a year on your Credit Card, we still offer cashback on lower combined purchase values! If you spend up to $1,000 you'll receive 0.25% cashback, over $1,000 up to $2,000 you'll receive 0.50% cashback, and over $2,000 up to $3,000 you'll receive 0.75% cashback. Even if you only make one purchase you're still going to get cashback with ACU Credit Cards!

All Credit Cards are Bad: Credit Cards are great tools for building credit and taking advantage of rewards programs. When used responsibly they're an excellent money management option.
Credit Cards Only Lead to Debt: Irresponsible use of a credit card can lead to debt, but if you don't exceed what you can afford to pay back each month and make your payments on time you won't find yourself in debt.
