Patriotic Cards (10/16/01)
FULL STORY:
In the wake of rising nationalism more patriotic cards are emerging. 5Star
Bank, formerly known AFBA Bank, has launched two United We Stand VISA and
MasterCards. The 5Star patriotic cards offer applicants nationwide, the choice
of a no-annual-fee card with go-to APRs ranging from 10.9%-16.9%, or a $35
annual fee card with APRs ranging from 8.9% to 14.9%. Either pricing choice
carries a six-billing-cycle 5.9% promo APR for new purchases and balance
transfers. Unlike most card major issuers, 5Star does not charge fees for
balance transfers or convenience checks. The United We Stand VISA or
MasterCards are available in both Classic and Platinum levels. The Platinum
Premier version offers $1 million in travel accident insurance. AFBA (Armed
Forces Benefit Association), now known as AFBA - The 5Star Association,
primarily offers life insurance to military personnel and government workers.
The insurance programs do not carry war clauses or area restrictions. For more
