(iii)       You are responsible for keeping track of your account balances and your available credit limit. You agree not to use your card to attempt to obtain credit 
in excess of your credit limit. We may still honor transactions above your credit limit, but our honoring of these transactions will not increase your credit limit, 
and is at our sole discretion. 

(iv)  We may also increase, decrease, restrict, or cancel your credit limit at any time, subject to applicable law. This will not affect your obligation to pay the 

indebtedness as required by this Agreement. If we change your credit limit, we will notify you in the manner required by applicable law.

interest in a savings account issued on or before the application date. You assign and grant to us, for valuable consideration, a security interest in the savings 
account, effective on the date you first use the card to initiate a transaction, to secure your obligation to pay the indebtedness, but only if we approve 
your application. 

(e) 

Acceptance of this Agreement and Changes to this Agreement. 

(i)         We issued card(s) to you as identified in the application. All issued card(s) were sent to you at the address you provided in your application. You will be 
deemed to have accepted and agreed to this Agreement on the day you first use the card to initiate a transaction after you first receive the card.

change is effective.

Your Account Use Agreements. 
(a) 

Using Your Account. 

(i)         You promise to follow the terms of this Agreement as long as your account remains open or has a balance due. Please sign the card immediately when 
you receive it. The card is valid during the dates provided on the front. We will release our security interest in the savings account as stated in Section 
3(m)(iv). Prior to the expiration date of the initial card we issued in response to your application, we will review your credit report (per Section 4(g)(ii)) 
and decide whether you may qualify for unsecured credit. If you do, we will notify you to that effect. If you respond positively to our notification, we 
will establish a new unsecured card account with an appropriate credit  limit  and issue  card(s) to you.  If you do not  qualify for  unsecured credit, we 
may issue replacement cards(s) unless you tell us otherwise. In any event, your account will continue to be secured by the savings account for as long as 
you are obliged to pay your indebtedness. 
The card is our property, and you will return it to us or destroy it if we ask. 
You will take reasonable steps to prevent the unauthorized use of the card. 

(ii) 
(iii) 
(iv)       We are not responsible if anyone refuses to accept the card for any reason. Also, we may reject any transaction for any reason. We may limit the type, 
number, or aggregate dollar amount of transactions you are permitted to initiate in a day, week, or billing cycle  for security reasons. If we impose such 
limits, you agree that we will not be liable to you if we do not authorize or process transactions in excess of those limits. Unless we tell you otherwise, 
we will bill each transaction to your account and apply it against your available credit limit for each billing cycle. 
Unless we agree, you may not use a transfer to transfer amounts from other accounts with us or any of our affiliates. 

(v) 
(vi)       You must not use, or try to use, the card for any Internet gambling transactions or transactions that are illegal or not permitted by us. You will still be 
responsible for all indebtedness arising from such transactions if you do, and they will be subject to this Agreement. You might have to reimburse the 
network and us for all damages and expenses. 

(vii)      You must not use, or try to use, the card for any transactions, such as securing or paying for rental car usage, as that is not permitted by us. You will still 
be responsible for all indebtedness arising from such transactions if you do, and they will be subject to this Agreement. You might have to reimburse the 
network and us for all damages and expenses.

(ix)       From time to time, due to circumstances beyond our control (such as system failures, fires, floods, natural disasters or other unpredictable events), 
our services might be unavailable. When this happens, you might be unable to use the card or obtain information about your account. We will not be 
responsible or liable if this happens. 

(b) 

Transactions Made in Foreign Currencies. 

(i)         A currency conversion transaction fee in the amount set forth in the Disclosure Statement will be assessed on all transactions where the merchant country differs 
from the card issuer’s country. The converted transaction amount will be shown separately from the international transaction fee on your statement. 
(ii)        An international transaction fee in the amount set forth in the Disclosure Statement will be assessed on foreign transactions where a currency conversion is 

not performed. 

(c)          No Warranties. Except as otherwise provided in the “Billing Rights Summary” part of your statements (see Section 3(i)), we are not responsible for any 

claim you might have regarding the purchases of goods or services made with the card. 
Merchant Refunds. If you are entitled to a refund for goods or services purchased with the card, you will accept these refunds as credits to your account. 
We do not control when a merchant sends us your refund. We will also have a reasonable amount of time after we receive your refund to process it. 
Using a PIN.

or POS requires entry of a PIN and displays the logo of the network on the card.

gained unauthorized access to your PIN, you must contact us immediately. 

3. 

Your Payment Agreements. 
(a)          Your Promise to Pay. You promise, individually and jointly, to pay us all amounts due on your account. This includes amounts where you did not sign a 
purchase slip or other documents for the transaction. If you use the card number without presenting the physical card (such as for mail, telephone or Internet 
purchases), this will be treated the same way as if you presented the card. If you let someone else use the card, you are responsible for all transactions that 
person makes. If you die, we will apply savings account funds to your indebtedness prior to making any surplus funds available to any other person or your estate. 
(b)         Making Payments. Your payments must be in U.S. dollars from a U.S. deposit account and otherwise be acceptable to us. We do not accept cash payments 

(c) 

through the mail. You may not make payments with funds from your account or any other credit account with us or any of our affiliates. 
Interest Charges and Fees. We will charge interest charges and fees to your account as disclosed to you in the Disclosure Statement and your statements. 
(i) Interest Charges. In general, interest charges begin to accrue from the day a transaction occurs.  
(a) We will not assess interest charges on any new purchases or balance transfers posted to your account provided you have paid your previous balance in full 

by its due date.  

(b) Interest charges will begin accruing on the date of the transaction for all cash advances. There is no grace period to avoid paying interest on these 

transactions. 

(c) The back of the statement provides a detailed explanation for calculating your interest charges. 

(ii) 

Fees. The following fees apply to your account only if they are provided in the Disclosure Statement. 

(A)    Annual Fee. We may charge this fee upon the opening of your card account and each anniversary of your card issue date. 
(B)    Balance Transfer Fee. We will charge this fee each time you request us to transfer a balance from another institution to your card account. 
(C)    Card Replacement Fee. We may charge this fee if we issue a replacement card at your request prior to the card’s normal reissue date. 
(D)   Cash Advance Fee. We may charge this fee each time you obtain a cash advance. 
(E)    Copying Fee. We may charge a per-page fee for copies of transaction documents or statements unless they are required when resolving a billing 

dispute.

(G)   International Transaction Fee. We may charge this fee under the circumstances described in Section 2(b)(ii). 
(H)   Late Payment Fee. We will charge this fee if by 15 days after your scheduled payment due date, we have not received your minimum payment.  
(I)    Over the limit means exceeding your credit limit by more than $0.01. 
(J)  Returned Payment Fee. We may charge this fee each time any payment you make to us is not paid by your financial institution for any reason, even 

if your institution later pays it. 

(K)   Special Processing Fee. We may charge this fee if you request that your account have expedited processing and expedited delivery of your card to 

you, if available and offered. 

(iii)  We will not charge both a late payment fee and a returned payment fee in the same billing cycle. 
(iv) 

 We may increase your interest charges and fees as described in Section 4(j) or in the related documents. 
Minimum Payment. 

(d) 

(i)         Your statement will provide instructions for making payments, including the amounts due and the due date. If applicable, your statement will also provide a 
minimum payment amount. To avoid a late payment fee, your minimum payment must be received by us no later than 15 days after your scheduled payment 
due date. 

(ii)        In addition to the minimum payment, you may pay all or part of the balance on your account. However, you must still pay at least the minimum payment 
amount each month, even if you paid more than the minimum on the previous statement. We will continue to charge interest charges during billing cycles 
when  you  carry  a  balance  regardless  of  whether  your  statement  includes  a  minimum  payment.  If  your  account  is  60  days  past  due  the  entire  balance  is 
immediately due and payable. 

(iii)       Payments will be applied in the following order: (A) interest charges; (B) previous cash advances (including transfers); (C) previous purchases; (D) current cash 

advances (including transfers); and finally to (E) current purchases. 

(e) 

Index; Periodic Rate. 

The index is the highest Prime Rate published in the “Money Rates” column of The Wall Street Journal ("WSJ"). 

(i) 
(ii)        We may adjust the index monthly using the Prime Rate published in the WSJ on the 25th day of each month, or the day immediately preceding those 
dates on which the WSJ is published if the WSJ does not publish a Prime Rate on the 25th  day of a month. The new rate will take effect on the first 
day of your  next  billing  cycle.  The WSJ  Prime Rate  in effect  on August 1, 2019 was  5.25%.  The  APR will  be  determined by  adding  the  margin of 
17.74% to the value of the index.  Your APR may change monthly. 

(f) 

Penalty Rate. If your minimum payment is not received within 60 days of the payment due date, your entire account balance is subject to the penalty 
rate of 24.99% APR. The Penalty APR will remain in place until you make six (6) consecutive minimum monthly payments when due, as 
indicated on your monthly account statement. After six (6) consecutive payments, the APR will revert to the standard APR as shown on the 
Account Opening Disclosure for Purchases, Balance Transfers, and Cash Advances. If you do not make these six (6) consecutive minimum payments, 
we may keep the Penalty APR on your account indefinitely.

(g)                  Variable Rates. How do you calculate variable rates? 

(i) 

We calculate variable rates by adding  a margin to the value  of the  index. Therefore, variable interest  rates may change when the  value  of the index 
changes. If the index value changes, your new interest rate (and corresponding APR) will take effect on your next billing cycle. 

(ii)  What are the daily periodic rates used to calculate my interest? The daily periodic rate for all transactions is 0.0629%. 
(iii)       How is the interest charge applied? Subject to your right to pay the “New Balance” in full by the due date without incurring interest charges, interest charges 

accrue from the transaction date, the date the transaction is posted to your account, or the first calendar day of the billing cycle, as applicable. Interest charges 
accrue on the unpaid amount until it is paid in full. This means you may owe interest charges even if you pay the entire “New Balance” one month, but 
did not do so for the previous month. 

(iv)       How do you calculate interest charges? We calculate your total interest charge by multiplying your average daily balance by the daily periodic rate and multiplying the 

result by the number of days in the billing cycle. Due to rounding or a minimum interest charge, this calculation may vary slightly from the interest charge actually 
assessed. 

(v)        We determine your daily periodic rate by dividing the corresponding APR by 365 and rounding to the nearest 1/1,000 of 1%, not to exceed the maximum 
allowed by applicable law. If the daily periodic rate and corresponding APR increase, the interest charge will increase and your minimum payment may be more. 

(vi)       To determine your average daily balance, add the daily balances together and divide the sum by the number of days in the billing cycle. 
(vii)      To determine your daily balance, take the beginning balance and add in new transactions and the periodic interest charge on the previous day’s balance, then 

subtract any payments and credits as of that day. However, if you paid your previous month’s balance in full (or if your balance was zero or a credit amount), 
new transactions are not added to the daily balances as long as the “New Balance” is paid in full by the due date. 

(h)

What to Do If You Find a Mistake On Your Statement 

   (i) 
                         (A) 

If you think there is an error on your statement, write to us at:

(1)  Account Information: Your name and account number. 
(2)  Dollar Amount: The dollar amount of the suspected error. 
(3)     Description of the Problem: If you think there is an error on your statement, describe what you believe is wrong and why you believe it is

(2)     At least three business days before an automated payment is scheduled, if you want to stop payment on the amount you think is wrong. 
(3)     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 

(ii)  What Will Happen After We Receive Your Letter 

(A)  When we receive your letter, we must do two things: 

and you may have to pay us the amount in question. 

(1)     Within 30 days of receiving your letter, we must tell you that we received your letter. We will also tell you if we have already corrected 

the error. 

                              (C) 

(B) 

(2)     Within 90 days of receiving your letter, we must either correct the error or explain to you why we believe the statement is correct. 
While we investigate whether or not there has been an error: 
(1)  We cannot try to collect the amount in question, or report you as delinquent on that amount. 
(2)  The charge in question may remain on your statement, and we may continue to assess interest charges on that amount. 
(3)  While you do not have to pay the amount in question, you are responsible for the remainder of your balance. 
(4)     We can apply any unpaid amount against your credit limit.  
After we finish our investigation, one of two things will happen: 
(1)   If we made a mistake: You will not have to pay the amount in question or any interest charges or other fees related to that amount.  
(2)   If we do not believe there was a mistake: You will have to pay the amount in question, along with applicable interest charges and fees. We 
will send 
you written notice of the amount 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 statement 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 statement. 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. 
(E)         If we do not follow the rules above, you do not have to pay the first $50.00 of the amount you question even if your statement is correct.

Your Rights If You Are Dissatisfied with Your Credit Card Purchases 

(A)         If you are dissatisfied with the goods or services that you have purchased with the card, and you have tried in good faith to correct the problem 

(B) 

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: 
(1)     The purchase must have been made in your home state or within 100 miles of your current mailing address, and the purchase price must have 
been more than $50.00. (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.) 

(2) You must have used your card for the purchase. Purchases made with cash advances from an ATM or with a check that accesses your 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:

 (D)     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.

give us any merchandise or other purchases you received in connection with the disputed amount if we ask; 
not pursue any claim or reimbursement from the merchant and that other person; and 
help us pursue and get reimbursement from the merchant and that other person. 
Your help includes giving us documents that we ask for and that are acceptable to us. 
Mailed Payments. 

You must mail payments to us at the address provided on your statement or as otherwise instructed by us. We will credit each payment to your account

you send the payment coupon included with your statement in the same envelope with your payment; 
you include your account number on your payment item; and 
your payment arrives at the address indicated on the payment coupon by the cutoff time. 

(ii)        Unless otherwise specified in Section 3(j)(i), and except as limited by applicable law, payments that conform to the requirements of Section 3(l)(i) will be 
credited to your account if we receive them by the cutoff time. If we receive any payment after the cutoff time, we will apply it the next business day except 
when a delay does not result in a finance or other charge. If the due date falls on a weekend or holiday, or a day on which we do not receive or accept 
payments, then we will treat any payment received by us at the correct address by the cutoff time on the next business day as if we received it by the cutoff 
time on the due date. We will not impose a separate fee for you to make payments unless the applicable payment method involves an expedited (that is 
same day or next day) delivery service. 

(iii)  We may accept payments that do not conform to the requirements set forth in this Section 3(l), and if we do so, we will apply them to your account

Security Agreement. 

(i)         Pledge and Grant of Security Interest. For valuable consideration, you assign and grant to us a security interest in the Credit Builder savings account, to secure 

your obligation to pay the indebtedness. 

(ii)        Default. If an event of default occurs and remains uncured for a period of not less than 60 days after a due date, you authorize us to apply savings account 
funds to reduce the indebtedness to $0.00. We are not required to send you any additional notice or demand for payment. The rights described in this 
Section 3(m)(ii) are in addition to all other rights we have under the Agreement or applicable law. 

(iii)       Application of Funds to the Account. If any indebtedness remains unpaid, you will still be responsible for the repayment of that amount, and we may continue 
to report your account delinquent as applicable. If your account becomes subject to bankruptcy proceedings, we will treat the savings account as required by 
that process. We may, at our discretion, unsecure your account at any time by releasing our lien interest in the savings account. 

(iv)       Release of Security Interest in Savings Account. We will release our security interest in your savings account when we or you cancel or terminate your account, 

but only after applying savings account funds to your indebtedness. 

(v)        Legal  Proceedings;  Disputes.  You  represent  that  there  are  no  current  lawsuits  or  bankruptcy  proceedings  that  might  affect  our  interest  in  the  savings 
account. You have not and will not attempt to transfer any interest in the savings account to any person or offer the savings account as security for obligations 
other than the indebtedness. If your account or the savings account become involved or are likely to become involved in a legal proceeding, you understand 
that the entire balance of the savings account may be restricted until the matter is resolved. 

(vi)       Escheat.  You  understand  that  the  savings  account  may be  subject to applicable law  with  respect  to escheat  of dormant  funds,  as  set  forth  in  the  related 

documents. 

Our Account Servicing Agreements. 
(a)          Statements. We will send you one statement for all cards issued with respect to your account per billing cycle unless applicable law does not require or permit 
us to send only one statement. Statements will be sent at the end of each billing cycle when your account has a debit or credit balance of more than $1.00, or 
if we have charged any interest charges to your account. Your statement will show all transactions billed to your account during the billing cycle along with other 
important account information. 
Payment Processing. 

(b) 

(i)         We may accept and process payments without losing any of our rights. Even if we apply your payment to your account, we may delay the availability of 
credit until we confirm that your payment has cleared. We may resubmit and electronically collect returned payments. We may also adjust your account 
as necessary to correct errors, to process returned and reversed payments, and to handle similar issues. 

(ii)        When you provide an item as payment you authorize us either to use information from your item to make a one time electronic fund transfer from 
your  deposit  account  or  to  process  the  payment  as  an  item.  We  will  provide  additional  information  about  this  process  on  your  statement  or  other 
documents we send you before your payment. You may contact us and ask that we not process your future items in this way. 

(iii)       When you provide an item as payment, it might also be converted into an electronic image and collected and returned electronically. These electronic 
images may also be converted to substitute checks. We will not be responsible if an item you provide has physical features that when imaged result in 
it not being processed as you intended. 

(c)          Items with Restrictive  Words,  Conditions or  Instructions.  All items  that  have  restrictive  words,  conditions,  limitations,  or  special instructions added 
(including items marked with the words “Paid in Full” or similar language) and all accompanying communications must be mailed to and received at the 
address in your most recent statement. If you make your payment or send any accompanying communications to any other address, we may accept and 
process the payment without losing any of our rights.
