Amalgamated Bank Credit Card 
Cardmember Agreement 

RETAIL INSTALLMENT CREDIT AGREEMENT 

V. APRIL 2018.1 

AGREEMENT TERMS.  In this Agreement, the word “Cardmember” means any person who applied and was approved for a 
Card.  The words “you,” “your” and “yours” mean the Cardmember.  If you have a Union Credit Card, the word “Union” 
means the union of which the Cardmember is a member in good standing.  The words “we,” “us,” “our,” “ours” and “Bank” 
mean Amalgamated Bank of Chicago and its successors or assigns. 

CHANGING THIS AGREEMENT.  Subject to the limitations of applicable law, we may at any time change, add to or delete 
any of the terms and conditions in this Agreement, including, but not limited to, interest rates and fees and this Changing 
This Agreement section.  Such changes may be based, in whole or in part, upon factors including, but not limited to, anti-
fraud policies and procedures, your record of making timely payments and staying within the established Credit Limit on 
your Account with us, or your credit score and information contained in your credit report.  We will give you notice of any 
change, addition or deletion as required by applicable law.  As of the effective date, the changed terms, at our option, will 
apply to new Purchases, Advances and Balance Transfers and to the outstanding balances of your Account, to the extent 
permitted by applicable law. 

CREDIT LIMIT.  We will grant you credit up to a maximum amount (your “Credit Limit”).  You will be informed of your initial 
Credit Limit when you receive your Card.  Your current Credit Limit will be shown on each monthly statement.  You promise 
not to exceed your Credit Limit.  However, if you exceed your Credit Limit, we can still charge you for all Purchases, 
Advances, Balance Transfers, interest and fees without giving up any of our rights.  At our discretion, we may change your 
Credit Limit at any time without advance notice to you. 

USE OF ACCOUNT.  You may use your Account to make Purchases, Advances and Balance Transfers as described 
below.  Any use of your Account number will be considered to be a use of the Card.  Please sign the Card before you use it.  
The Card is our property.  You must return it to us or our agent upon request. 

1. 

Purchases.  You may use your Card at participating merchants to purchase goods and services 

(“Purchases”).  Unless a billing error has been disclosed in your monthly statement, your account may be debited as a 
purchase for each copy requested by you of a sale, refund or cash advance slip. 

2. 

Advances.  You may use your Card or Account to obtain cash loans (“Advances”) from an authorized 

automated teller machine (“ATM”), bank or others who agree to accept your Card.  To obtain Advances at authorized ATMs, 
you must request and use a personal identification number (“PIN”).  You agree to keep your PIN confidential and not write it 
on or leave it near your Card.  ATM Cash Advance charges are shown on the Account Disclosures Insert and also are 
available upon request.  We may impose other or different charges for Cash Advances upon prior notice to you.  ATM Cash 
Advance Limits are shown on the monthly statement as “Available Cash.”  We may change the Available Cash amount from 
time to time.   

You also may obtain Advances by using Credit Checks that we may provide from time to time that you may use like a 
personal check to access your Account.  Whenever you use a Credit Check, it will be charged against your Account as an 
Advance on the date it is received by us.  You may not use your Credit Checks as payment on your Account or any other 
account you have with us.  Credit Checks will not be returned with your monthly statement but will be identified on it.  We 
will not certify a Credit Check. 

3. 

Balance Transfers.  You may use your Card or Account to transfer balances from other credit card 

accounts to this Account (“Balance Transfers”) by means (including balance transfer forms) we may make available from 
time to time. You may not transfer balances from any other account you have with us.

PROMISE TO PAY.  When you use your Account or permit someone else to use it, you promise to pay the total amount of 
all Purchases, Advances and Balance Transfers as well as any interest or fees that may be due under the terms of this 
Agreement.  If your Account is a joint Account, all of you are bound by this Agreement and each of you jointly and 
individually promises to pay all amounts owed to us for transactions made by any joint Account holder. 

MONTHLY STATEMENT.  We will send you a monthly statement for any billing period in which there is activity on your 
Account, or as otherwise required by applicable law.  Your monthly statement will show, among other things, (1) the unpaid 
balance on your Account at the beginning of the billing period (the “New Balance”); (2) any Purchases, Advances, Balance 
Transfers, interest, fees and other debits posted to your Account in that billing period; (3) any payments and credits posted 
to your Account in that billing period; and (4) the minimum payment you must pay and the date your minimum payment is 
due (approximately 25 days after the billing date on your monthly statement).  We will send the monthly statement to the 
address specified on your Application or to the address you designate from time to time.  If this is a joint Account, each of 
you appoints the other as his or her agent to designate the address to which we may send your monthly statements and any 
other notices. 

PAYMENTS. 

1. 

Minimum Payment; Application of Payments.  You must pay at least the minimum payment shown on your 

monthly statement each billing period.  If the New Balance is more than $15, the minimum payment is $15 or 2.5% of the 
New Balance, whichever is greater.  The minimum payment will be rounded up to the nearest dollar.  If the New Balance is 
less than $15, the total New Balance is due.  Any amounts past due or in excess of your Credit Limit will also be added to 
the minimum payment.  Payment for more than the minimum amount due will be accepted as a single payment for that 
month.  Any amount over the minimum is not applicable to future amounts due.  In accordance with applicable law, we will 
choose the order in which payments are applied to your Account. 

2. 

Skip Payment Options (If You Have A Union Credit Card).  We may allow you to skip one or more minimum 

payments if one of the following options is applicable to your Account.  Interest will continue to accrue on any unpaid 
balance in any billing period in which you skip a minimum payment, but no Late Payment Fee will be imposed on your 
Account.  An election to skip payments under either option may lengthen the period over which your Account balance must 
be paid. 

a. 

Strike Skip Payment:  You may skip the minimum payment for those months when you are on 
strike if (1) the strike lasts for at least 30 days and is sanctioned by your Union and (2) your Union notifies us that you 
qualify for the Strike Skip Payment. 

b. 
minimum payment in those months. 

“No-Pay” Option Months:  If your Union has chosen “no-pay” option months, you may skip the 

3. 

Making Payments.  All payments must be in U.S. dollars.  All checks must be drawn on funds on deposit in 
the United States.  Mail your payment to the address shown on your monthly statement.  Your payment will be credited as 
of the date of receipt by us only if received by 5:00 p.m. (Central Standard Time).  Any payments received after this time will 
be deemed received by us on the next business day.  Payments made at any location other than the address shown on 
your monthly statement could be subject to a delay in crediting.  With your payment, include your payment coupon, which is 
a portion of your monthly statement.  If you do not include your payment coupon, credit to your Account may be delayed.  
Delayed crediting may cause you to incur a Late Payment Fee or additional interest.  Payments can also be made online at 
www.aboc.com or by phone at (800) 365-6464. Do not send us cash.   

4. 

Disputed Payments.  You agree not to send us payments marked “paid in full,” “without recourse” or with 
similar language.  If you send such a payment, we may accept it without losing any of our rights under this Agreement.  All 
written communications concerning disputed amounts, including any check or other payment instrument that indicates that 
the payment constitutes “payment in full” of the amount owed or that is tendered with other conditions or limitations or as full 
satisfaction of a disputed amount, must be mailed or delivered to Amalgamated Bank of Chicago, P.O. Box A3979, Chicago,

OTHER FEES.  Subject to limitations and requirements of applicable law, you agree to pay the following fees: 

a. 

If applicable, an Annual Fee, which will be billed on your first monthly statement and thereafter on the 

anniversary date of your Account until your Account is terminated or cancelled; 

b. 

A Late Payment Fee is based on your Account balance contained on your most recent statement if you 

have not made the required monthly payment by the statement due date. The late payment fee will be up to $15 for 
balances up to $99.99, $25 for balances $100 to $999.99 and $35 for balances $1,000 or more, except that the fee will not 
exceed the minimum payment due when the payment was late and will exceed $25 only if more than one payment is late 
within six billing cycles; 

c. 

d. 

A Transaction Fee for each Advance, including Balance Transfers; 

A Returned Payment Fee for any payment that is returned unpaid by your financial institution, not to exceed 

the minimum payment due when the payment was returned; 

e. 

f. 

and 

An International Transaction Fee for each transaction made outside the U.S., including returns; 

A Copy Fee for each additional copy of a monthly statement or sales receipt we provide at your request; 

g. 
before 1PM CST. 

A Rush Card Fee for each card you request be rush mailed to you within one business day if requested 

The specific amounts of these fees and any additional terms or conditions related to these fees are shown on the Account 
Disclosures Insert. 

INTEREST.  The monthly periodic rates used to calculate interest on your Account and the corresponding Annual 
Percentage Rate (“APRs”), which depend on the type of Card you have (such as Union, Standard or Gold), are set forth on 
the Account Disclosures Insert.  The monthly periodic rates and corresponding APRs for each billing period will vary with the 
market based on the prime rate published in The Wall Street Journal on the last business day of the preceding month (the 
“Prime Rate”).  Your monthly periodic rates and corresponding APRs may increase or decrease if the Prime Rate changes.  
Changes in the Prime Rate will apply to your entire Account balance, will take effect on the first business day of the billing 
period following the change and may result in increases or decreases in the amount of interest, minimum payments and/or 
number of payments.  A business day is any calendar day other than a Saturday, Sunday, or federal holiday.  We may 
select a new interest rate index if the Prime Rate is not available. 

1. 

Rate for Purchases.  The monthly periodic rate for a billing period for your Purchase balance is the Prime 
Rate plus a Margin (set forth on the Account Disclosures Insert), divided by 12 and calculated to three decimal places and 
rounded up. 

2. 

Rate for Advances.  The monthly periodic rate for a billing period for your Advance balance is the Prime 

Rate plus a Margin (set forth on the Account Disclosures Insert), divided by 12 and calculated to three decimal places and 
rounded up. 

3. 

Rate for Balance Transfers. The monthly periodic rate for a billing period for your Balance Transfer balance 
is the Prime Rate plus a Margin (set forth on the Account Disclosures Insert), divided by 12 and calculated to three decimal 
places and rounded up.

BALANCE SUBJECT TO INTEREST.  We figure the interest on your Account by applying the applicable monthly periodic 
rate to the “average daily balance” of your Account (including current transactions).  To get the “average daily balance,” we 
take the beginning balance of your Account each day, add any new Purchases, Advances, Balance Transfers or fees, and 
subtract any payments and credits and unpaid interest.  This gives us the daily balance.  Then, we add up the daily 
balances for the billing period and divide the total by the number of days in the billing period.  This gives us the “average 
daily balance.”   

WHEN INTEREST BEGINS TO ACCRUE; GRACE PERIOD.  Except as provided below, Purchases, Advances and 
Balance Transfers begin to accrue interest from the date of the transaction (or, at our option, from the date they are posted 
to your Account) and continue to accrue interest until the charge is paid in full.  You will have at least a 25 day grace period 
(“Grace Period”) on Purchases.  This means you have at least 25 days from the closing date on your monthly statement to 
pay for new Purchases before we charge interest on them.  However, the Grace Period will apply only in billing periods 
when (1) you paid the previous balance in full or (2) you had a previous balance of $0.00 or a credit balance.  (The previous 
balance is the balance identified as the New Balance on the monthly statement for the previous billing period.)  When the 
Grace Period applies, we will not impose interest on (1) any new Purchases if we receive the full New Balance on the 
monthly statement for that billing period by the due date shown on that statement or (2) the portion of the Purchase balance 
repaid if we receive only part of the New Balance by the due date.  There is no Grace Period within which you can avoid 
interest on Advances or Balance Transfers. 

AUTHORIZATION OF TRANSACTIONS; LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.  We are not obligated to authorize any transaction 
(including Purchases, Advances, Balance Transfers or Credit Checks) under the following circumstances or any other 
circumstances which we deem necessary: (1) your Credit Limit has been exceeded or would be exceeded by the 
transaction; (2) you have failed to pay amounts owed to us when due or have failed to follow any terms of this Agreement; 
(3) you have notified us promptly that your Card or Credit Checks have been lost or stolen or may be used by an 
unauthorized person; (4) your Account has been closed for any reason; or (5) your rights under this Agreement have 
expired or been revoked for any reason.  If, in our sole discretion, we elect to honor a transaction under any of the above 
circumstances, we may nevertheless charge the full amount thereof to your Account.  We are not responsible for the failure 
of any merchant, financial institution or other party to honor your Card or Advance request. 

FOREIGN TRANSACTIONS.  The credit card association will convert any transaction in foreign currency into U.S. dollars 
using an exchange rate for the applicable central processing date that is (1) selected by the association from the range of 
rates available in wholesale currency markets, which rate may vary from the rate the association receives, or (2) the 
government mandated rate. 

MILITARY LENDING ACT.  Federal law provides important protections to members of the Armed Forces and their dependents 
relating to extensions of consumer credit.  In general, the cost of consumer credit to a member of the Armed Forces and his 
or her dependent may not exceed an annual percentage rate of 36 percent.  This rate must include, as applicable to the credit 
transaction or account: The costs associated with credit insurance premiums; fees for ancillary products sold in connection 
with the credit transaction; any application fee charged (other than certain application fees for specified credit transactions or 
accounts); and any participation fee charged (other than certain participation fees for a credit card account).  You can also 
call (844) 334-3810 to hear this disclosure orally. 

DEFAULT.  Subject to limitations required by applicable law, you will be in default if (1) you fail to pay the full minimum 
payment on time; (2) you file for bankruptcy; (3) you break one of your promises under this Agreement; (4) you have a 
Union Credit Card and the Cardmember is no longer a member in good standing of the Cardmember's Union; (5) you 
provide us with any false, misleading, incomplete or incorrect information or signature; or (6) you die.  Upon your default, we 
may, subject to the limitations of applicable law and without notice: (1) reduce your Credit Limit; (2) close your Account and 
demand immediate payment of the entire outstanding balance and any other fees or charges that may be imposed under 
the terms of this Agreement; (3) bring an action to collect all amounts owed; and/or (4) take any action allowed by law. 

55795 

 
 
 
 
 
 
COLLECTION COSTS.  To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to pay all costs and disbursements, including 
reasonable attorney's fees, incurred by us in collecting or enforcing your indebtedness, whether or not a court proceeding is 
actually commenced.  We will bill these costs to your Account as Purchases. 

OTHERS USING YOUR ACCOUNT.  You promise to pay for all transactions made by any other person you authorize to 
use your Account, whether or not that person exceeded your permission and whether or not you notified us that the person 
was using your Account.  If someone else is authorized to use your Card or Account and you want to end that person's 
privileges, you must let us know in writing.  If he or she has a Card, you must return that Card cut in half with your written 
notice. 

CLOSING YOUR ACCOUNT. You may close your Account at any time by notifying us in writing and returning your 
Card(s) cut in half. You remain responsible to pay the amount you owe us according to the terms of this Agreement. We 
may close or suspend your Account privileges at any time and without prior notice, unless required by applicable law, for 
any reason we deem appropriate, including if you are in default under this Agreement. We may also reissue a different 
Card at any time. Upon request, you must destroy the Card by cutting it in half and surrendering it to us or our agent. In 
the event of the death of an existing Cardmember it is our policy to remove the Cardmember from the Account and 
request that the decedent’s Card be destroyed. If the Account is jointly held we will evaluate various factors relating to the 
remaining Cardmember to determine if the Credit Limit should be adjusted as described in the section of this Agreement 
entitled “Credit Limit” and “Default”. 

ADDRESSES; CHANGE OF ADDRESS.  Your full name, address and any signature on your Application are considered 
part of this Agreement.  For purposes of this Agreement, you agree and represent that you live at the address shown on 
your Application or from time to time designated by you for the receipt of monthly statements.  You will notify us of any 
address change in writing before the change becomes effective. 

DELAY IN ENFORCEMENT; NO WAIVER BY US.  We can delay enforcing or waive any of our rights under this Agreement 
without losing them.  If we waive a right, we do not thereby waive the same right in other situations. 

ASSIGNMENT.  We can assign your Account and any of our rights under this Agreement without consent or notice to you.  
Your Account, Card, this Agreement and your obligations hereunder are not transferable or assignable by you. 

GOVERNING LAW.  This Agreement and your Account will be governed by federal law applicable to a FDIC insured 
institution and, to the extent not preempted by federal law, the laws of Illinois, without regard to its conflicts of law 
provisions.  This Agreement is entered into between you and us in Illinois and we extend credit to you from Illinois, whether 
or not you live in Illinois and whether or not you use your Card in Illinois.  We will make the decision whether to open an 
account for you and issue a Card to you from our offices in Illinois.  All payments under this Agreement are received by us in 
Illinois. 

CREDIT REPORTS AND ACCOUNT INFORMATION.  You give us permission to request information from you and to make 
whatever inquiries we consider necessary and appropriate (including requesting a consumer report from consumer reporting 
agencies) in considering your Application and for any lawful purpose, including any updates, renewals or extensions of 
credit, or reviewing or collecting your Account.  Upon your request to us at Amalgamated Bank of Chicago, P.O. Box A3979,

What to Do If You Find a Mistake on Your Statement 

If you think there is an error on your statement, write to us at Amalgamated Bank of Chicago, P.O. Box A3979, 

Chicago, Illinois 60690. 

In your letter, give us the following information: 

* 

* 

Account information: Your name and account number. 

Dollar amount: The dollar amount of the suspected error. 

Description of problem: If you think there is an error on your bill, describe what you believe is wrong and why you 

* 
believe it is a mistake. 

You must contact us: 

* 

Within 60 days after the error appeared on your statement. 

At least 3 business days before an automated payment is scheduled, if you want to stop payment on the amount 

* 
you think is wrong. 

You must notify us of any potential errors in writing. You may call us, but if you do we are not required to investigate 

any potential errors and you may have to pay the amount in question. 

What Will Happen After We Receive Your Letter 

When we receive your letter, we must do two things: 

Within 30 days of receiving your letter, we must tell you that we received your letter. We will also tell you if we have 

1. 
already corrected the error.  

Within 90 days of receiving your letter, we must either correct the error or explain to you why we believe the bill is 

2. 
correct. 

While we investigate whether or not there has been an error: 

* 

* 

* 

* 

We cannot try to collect any amount in question, or report you as delinquent on that amount.  

The charge in question may remain on your statement, and we may continue to charge you interest on that amount.  

While you do not have to pay the amount in question, you are responsible for the remainder of your balance. 

We can apply any unpaid amount against your credit limit. 

After we finish our investigation, one of two things will happen: 

If we made a mistake: You will not have to pay the amount in question or any interest or other fees related to that 

* 
amount.  

55795 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
If we do not believe there was a mistake: You will have to pay the amount in question, along with applicable interest 

* 
and fees. We will send you a statement of the amount that you owe and the date payment is due. We may then report you 
as delinquent if you do not pay the amount we think you owe. 

If you receive our explanation but still believe your bill is wrong, you must write to us within 10 days telling us that 

you still refuse to pay. If you do so, we cannot report you as delinquent without also reporting that you are questioning your 
bill. We must tell you the name of anyone to whom we reported you as delinquent, and we must let those organizations 
know when the matter has been settled between us. 

If we do not follow all of the rules above, you do not have to pay the amount you question, even if your bill is 

correct. 

Your Rights If You Are Dissatisfied With Your Credit Card Purchases 

If you are dissatisfied with the goods or services that you have purchased with your credit card, and you have tried 
in good faith to correct the problem with the merchant, you may have the right not to pay the remaining amount due on the 
purchase.  

To use this right, all of the following must be true: 

The purchase must have made in your home state or within 100 miles of your current mailing address, and the 

1. 
purchase price must have been more than $50. (Note: Neither of these are necessary if your purchase was based on an 
advertisement we mailed to you, or if we own the company that sold you the goods or services.) 

You must have used your credit card for the purchase. Purchases made with cash advances from an ATM or with a 

2. 
check that accesses your credit card account do not qualify. 

3. 

You must not yet have fully paid for the purchase. 

If all of the criteria above are met and you are still dissatisfied with the purchase, contact us in writing at:  

Amalgamated Bank of Chicago 
P.O. Box A3979 
Chicago, Illinois 60690 

While we investigate, the same rules apply to the disputed amount as discussed above. After we finish our 
investigation, we will tell you our decision. At that point, if we think you owe an amount and you do not pay, we may report 
you as delinquent.
