USING YOUR ACCOUNT

Purchases 
You may use your Account to purchase goods and services from Retailer. You promise to pay 
us and are liable for all amounts resulting from the authorized use of your Account Number or 
Account, plus any applicable interest charges and other applicable charges or fees, payable 
in U.S. dollars. 

Your Credit Limit 
You may not use your Account in any way that would cause you to go over your Credit Limit. 
We may refuse to authorize or accept any transaction on your Account if (1) that transaction 
would  cause  you  to  exceed  your  Credit  Limit  or  (2)  your  Account  is  delinquent.  We  may 
temporarily agree to allow you to exceed your Credit Limit. If we do so, in that case, you must 
repay the excess amount according to the terms of this Agreement. Any transactions honored 
in excess of your Credit Limit will not result in an increase of your Credit Limit.

MAKING PAYMENTS

Monthly Statements 
We will send a statement at the end of each monthly Billing Cycle if there is a debit or credit 
balance  on  your  Account  of  $1  or  more,  a  balance  on  which  an  interest  charge  has  been 
imposed or as otherwise required by applicable law. You agree to pay us, or any party to whom 
we may transfer and assign your Account or the amounts owing under your Account, in U.S. 
dollars according to all terms and conditions of this Agreement. Payments made by a check, 
money order or other negotiable instrument must be in a form acceptable to us and drawn on 
a U.S. financial institution.

Monthly Minimum Payment 
Your monthly minimum payment due will be the greater of: 

1.  $15; or
2.  the sum of:

a.  Each fixed monthly payment amount applicable to each of your Purchases (described 

below), plus

b.  5% of your Regular Balance.

Each  Purchase  will  have  a  fixed  monthly  payment  amount  which  we  calculate  when  the 
Purchase  is  posted  to  your  Account.  We  determine  the  fixed  monthly  payment  amount  for 
a Purchase by multiplying the Purchase amount by 3.5%, and then rounding the result to the 
nearest dollar. If the remaining balance of a Purchase plus accrued interest on that Purchase is 
less than the fixed monthly payment amount, we will reduce the fixed monthly payment amount 
for that Purchase accordingly. We will continue to include the fixed monthly payment amount 
for a Purchase in the monthly minimum payment due until the Purchase plus accrued interest 
on that Purchase is paid in full.
If  you  make  a  payment  in  excess  of  the  monthly  minimum  payment  due  for  any  month,  it 
will not reduce the fixed monthly payment amount applicable to any Purchase that is used to 
calculate your monthly minimum payment due in subsequent months, but it may result in your 
paying off a Purchase more quickly.
Your monthly minimum payment due also will include the greater of (i) any past due amount, or 
(ii) any amount by which the New Balance exceeded your Credit Limit, whichever of these two 
is greater. Your monthly minimum payment due will never exceed your New Balance.
If you elect not to pay your New Balance in full, you must pay at least the monthly minimum 
payment due by the payment due date shown on your monthly statement, which is at least 25 
days after the Closing Date of the Billing Cycle. 
Payments  should  be  mailed  with  the  payment  coupon  and  in  the  envelope  provided  and 
following  the  other  instructions  on  the  monthly  statement  to  Bankcard  Services,  P.O.  Box 
84049,  Columbus,  Georgia  31908-4049.  Any  payment  we  receive  in  that  form  and  at  that 
address on or before 5:00 P.M. Eastern Time on a normal banking day will be credited to your 
Account that day. If we receive your payment in that form and at that address after 5:00 P.M. 
Eastern Time on a normal banking day, or any time on a non-banking day, we will credit it to 
your Account the next banking day. Please allow at least seven (7) business days for postal 
delivery. Payments we receive at any other location or in any other form may not be credited 
as of the day we receive them. If we accept a payment at some other place, we may delay the 
crediting of the payment for up to five (5) days. This may cause you to incur Late Payment 
Fees and additional interest charges, and may result in your Account being declared in default.
When you provide a check as payment, you authorize us either to use information from your 
check to make a one-time electronic fund transfer from your account or to process the payment 
as a check transaction. When we use information from your check to make an electronic fund 
transfer, funds may be withdrawn from your account as soon as the same day we receive your 
payment and you will not receive your check back from your financial institution.

At any time, you may pay part or all of the full amount you owe on your Account without 
incurring any additional charge for prepayment. The amount of any payment that exceeds your 
total New Balance will be applied as a credit to your Account, and any remaining credit balance 
will be refunded as required by law.
Credit availability may be delayed at our sole discretion to ensure payment in good funds, and 
your total Credit Limit may not reflect your payments for up to 14 days.

DEFERRED INTEREST PROMOTIONS 

Each Purchase on your Account is subject to up to 12 months of deferred interest, beginning 
on the date of the Purchase (the “deferred interest period”). Interest will be charged to your 
Account from the date of the Purchase if the Purchase balance is not paid in full within the 
deferred interest period or if you make a late payment.
Each Purchase transaction accrues interest from the date of the Purchase, but we will not 
charge that interest to your Account if you pay that Purchase balance in full before the end 
of the deferred interest period and you make monthly minimum payments as required. The 
deferred interest period will end when one or more of the following events occur:

•  12 months from the Purchase date;
•  Your Account becomes more than 180 days past due;
•  Your Account is charged off for any reason.

Interest on each Purchase transaction will accrue during the deferred interest period at an APR 
of 29.99%.
You must make monthly minimum payments during the deferred interest period. The monthly 
statement we send you will include these monthly minimum payment amounts and will help 
you keep track of your Purchase balance(s) and their deferred interest period(s). Paying only 
the  monthly  minimum  payment  may  not  pay  off  the  Purchase  balance  within  the  deferred 
interest period. You may have to make additional or increased payments during the deferred 
interest period to avoid having to pay all accrued deferred interest.
After the deferred interest period, interest will be charged at an APR of 29.99%.

HOW INTEREST CHARGES ARE DETERMINED

Your Interest Rate
We use a daily periodic rate to calculate the interest on your account. The daily periodic rate 
is the applicable APR multiplied by 1/365. The daily periodic rate for your account is 0.0821% 
and the applicable APR is 29.99%.

When We Charge Interest
We charge interest on your Purchases from the date you make the purchase until you pay the 
purchase in full. 

How We Calculate Interest
We calculate interest separately for each balance segment on your Account. We do this by 
applying  the  daily  periodic  rate  to  your  average  daily  balance  (including  new  Purchases), 
and then multiplying the resulting number by the number of days in the Billing Cycle for each 
balance segment. An average daily balance is calculated for the following balance segments as 
applicable: Purchase Balance segments and the Regular Balance segment. 
We calculate interest for each balance segment as follows:

1. For  each  day,  we  take  the  beginning  balance  of  each  balance  segment  in  the  billing
cycle, including any unpaid interest charges, add any new purchases and debits, and
then subtract the applicable portion of any payments and credits. This gives us the daily
balance. Late Payment Fees, Returned Payment Fees, and Documentation Fees are not
included in the daily balance.

2. Then, we add all the daily balances for the billing cycle together and divide the total by

the number of days in the billing cycle. This gives us the average daily balance.

3.  Next, we multiply the daily periodic rate by the average daily balance.
4. Finally, we take the resulting number from #3 and multiply it by the number of days in
the billing cycle. This gives us the interest charge for each balance segment for the billing 
cycle.

OTHER FEES 

In addition to interest charges, other fees may be applied to your Account, as set forth below. 
The amounts of these fees may change from time to time during the term of your Account.

Late Payment Fee
If we do not receive your monthly minimum payment due by the Closing Date of the Billing 
Cycle in which the Payment Due Date occurs and the amount past due on your Account is 
more than $5, we will apply a Late Payment Fee to your Account. The Late Payment Fee is $25 
if we did not charge a Late Payment Fee during any of the prior six billing periods. Otherwise, 
the Late Payment Fee is $35. The Late Payment Fee will never exceed the amount of your most 
recently required monthly minimum payment.

Returned Payment Fee
If  any  payment  on  your  Account  is  returned  to  us  unpaid  for  any  reason,  we  will  apply  a 
Returned Payment Fee to your Account. The Returned Payment Fee is $25 if we did not charge 
a Returned Payment Fee during any of the prior six billing periods. Otherwise, the Returned 
Payment  Fee  is  $35.  The  Returned  Payment  Fee  will  never  exceed  the  monthly  minimum 
payment.

Documentation Fee
You may request a copy of a monthly statement previously sent to you for a Documentation Fee 
of $3 per statement, which fee we will charge to your Account. Copies of sales tickets or other 
items posted to your Account may be obtained for a Documentation Fee of $10 per sales ticket 
or other item, which will be applied to your Account. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we will not 
impose any fee in connection with a good faith assertion of a billing error or other exercise of 
your Billing Rights (see below under “Your Billing Rights - Keep This Notice for Future Use”).

LOST ACCOUNT NUMBER AND UNAUTHORIZED USE 

If  your  Account  Number  is  lost  or  stolen  or  used  without  your  consent,  you  may  be  liable 
for the unauthorized use of your Account, but you will not be liable for unauthorized use that 
occurs after you notify us orally or in writing of the loss, theft or possible unauthorized use at: 
Bankcard Services, P.O. Box 4477, Beaverton, OR 97076, 1-888-260-4532. In any case, your 
liability will not exceed $50.

refund.

You agree not to send us partial payments marked “paid in full,” “without recourse,” or 
similar restrictive 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 indicated that the payment 
constitutes “payment in full” of the amount owed or that is tendered with other conditions

are in default, we may declare the entire balance due immediately. Except as provided in the 
Arbitration Provision below, you agree to pay our reasonable costs and attorneys’ fees and

Purchases and to the outstanding balance of your Account, subject to the limitations of 
applicable law.

OTHER PROVISIONS 

Ownership and Use of Your Account
As  the  Accountholder(s),  you  are  liable  for  all  Credit  obtained  under  your  Account.  If  you 
authorize another person to use your Account Number, you are liable for any Credit obtained 
on your Account for as long as that person holds or uses the Account Number. Misuse of your 
Account by an authorized person will not be considered unauthorized use. See “Lost Account 
Number and Unauthorized Use” above. 

Transactions
You  will  retain  for  statement  verification  purposes  your  copy  of  each  Purchase  transaction 
receipt from Retailer.

Refunds for Goods and Services
Refunds for goods and services are governed by Retailer. Any refunds for goods or services 
purchased from Retailer through an extension of Credit on your Account will be issued as a 
credit adjustment to your Account. When we are notified by Retailer of any refund amount, 
we  will  subtract  an  amount  equal  to  the  refund  amount  from  your  Account.  However,  the 
fixed minimum payment amount attributable to the related Purchase transaction amount will 
continue to be included in your monthly minimum payment. If a refund amount results in a 
credit balance on your Account, we will refund your credit balance.

Transfer and Termination of Your Account
You  may  not  transfer  your  Account  to  any  other  person.  We  may  assign  your  Account  or 
amounts you owe on your Account to any other person at any time and the assignee will take 
our place under the Agreement with respect to all agreements and interests transferred. You 
must pay the assignee and otherwise perform your obligations under the assigned agreements 
and interests. Either you or we may terminate or suspend your Credit privileges at any time, 
with or without cause and with or without advance notice, but you will remain liable for all 
charges until they are paid in full. You may cancel your Account at any time by writing to us 
at Bankcard Services, P.O. Box 4477, Beaverton, OR 97076. If you have a joint Account and 
want to remove one of the names from the Account, we must receive a written request signed 
by both of the Accountholders on the Account. No party is released from the obligation for the 
balance owing on a joint Account, unless we agree to the arrangements in writing. You may 
have to re-apply for an individual Account when you request a change from a joint Account to 
an individual Account.

Additional Benefits and Services
From time to time, we may offer you benefits and services with your Account. We or another 
party may provide these benefits and services. Unless expressly made a part of this Agreement, 
and except as provided in the Arbitration Provision below, any such benefits and services are 
not a part of this Agreement, and are subject only to the terms and conditions outlined in the 
benefits or services brochure and other official documents provided to you with respect to 
the benefits and services. We may adjust, add, or delete benefits or services at any time in 
accordance with the brochures or documents you receive. Except as required by applicable 
law, we are not liable for benefits or services that other parties provide or for their actions or 
omissions.

Honoring Your Account
We are not liable for the failure or refusal of Retailer to accept your Account Number. Although 
you may have Credit available, we will not be liable for the failure to authorize Credit due to 
operational  difficulties  or  mistakes.  Transactions  made  above  a  certain  dollar  amount  may 
require that we authorize the transaction before the transaction is approved. In addition, we may 
limit the number and amount of daily transactions approved for security reasons.

Change of Address, Employment and Telephone
We will send all written notices and statements to your address as it appears on our records. 
To  avoid  delays  and  missed  payments  that  could  affect  your  credit  standing,  you  agree  to 
promptly advise us if you change your mailing address, place of employment, or telephone 
number.

Severability
In the event that any provision of this Agreement is determined to be invalid or unenforceable 
for any reason, the remaining provisions will remain in effect.

Entire Agreement; Interpretation
This Agreement (including the other documents incorporated herein by reference as discussed 
above) constitutes the final expression of the credit agreement between you and us relating to 
your Account. The headings used in this Agreement are for the convenience of reference only 
and are not intended to define or describe the scope or intent of any portion of the Agreement

Governing Law
This Agreement is controlled and governed by the laws of the State of Missouri, including 
Missouri  Revised  Statutes  (Chapter  408  Legal  Tender  and  Interest)  Section  408.145, 
except to the extent that such laws are inconsistent with controlling federal laws.

Arbitration of Disputes Provision. 
PLEASE  READ  THIS  ARBITRATION  OF  DISPUTES  PROVISION  CAREFULLY.  UNLESS  YOU 
SEND US THE REJECTION NOTICE DESCRIBED BELOW, THIS PROVISION WILL APPLY TO 
YOUR  ACCOUNT,  AND  MOST  DISPUTES  BETWEEN  YOU  AND  US  WILL  BE  SUBJECT  TO 
INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION. THIS MEANS THAT: (1) NEITHER A COURT NOR A JURY WILL 
RESOLVE ANY SUCH DISPUTE; (2) YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS 
ACTION OR SIMILAR PROCEEDING; (3) LESS INFORMATION WILL BE AVAILABLE; AND (4) 
APPEAL RIGHTS WILL BE LIMITED.  
This provision replaces any existing arbitration provision with us and will stay in force no matter 
what happens to your Account, including the closing of your Account. Except as expressly 
provided below, you and we must arbitrate individually, by binding arbitration under the Federal 
Arbitration  Act  (“FAA”),  any  dispute  or  Claim  between  you,  any  joint  Accountholder  and/or 
Authorized User, on the one hand, and us , our affiliates and agents, on the other hand, if the 
dispute or Claim arises out of or is related to (a) this Agreement (including without limitation, 
any dispute over the validity of this Agreement to arbitrate disputes or of this entire Agreement), 
or (b) your Account, or (c) any relationship resulting from this Agreement, or (d) any insurance 
or other service related to your Account, or (e) any other agreement related to your Account 
(including  prior  agreements)  or  any  such  service,  or  (f)  breach  of  this  Agreement  or  any 
other such agreement, whether based on statute, contract, tort or any other legal theory (any 
“Claim”). However, we will not require you to arbitrate any individual Claims in small claims 
court or your state’s equivalent court, so long as it remains an individual case in that court.
YOU AGREE NOT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY 
GENERAL  ACTION  AGAINST  US  IN  COURT  OR  ARBITRATION.  ALSO,  YOU  MAY  NOT 
BRING  CLAIMS  AGAINST  US  ON  BEHALF  OF  ANY  ACCOUNTHOLDER  WHO  IS  NOT  A 
JOINT  ACCOUNTHOLDER  WITH  YOU  OR  AN  AUTHORIZED  USER  ON  YOUR  ACCOUNT 
(AN  “UNRELATED  ACCOUNTHOLDER”),  AND  YOU  AGREE  THAT  NO  UNRELATED 
ACCOUNTHOLDER  MAY  BRING  ANY  CLAIMS  AGAINST  US  ON  YOUR  BEHALF.  CLAIMS 
BY  YOU  AND  AN  UNRELATED  ACCOUNTHOLDER  MAY  NOT  BE  JOINED  IN  A  SINGLE 
ARBITRATION. THE ARBITRATOR WILL NOT HAVE THE POWER TO CONSIDER SUCH CLASS, 
REPRESENTATIVE OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTIONS OR ANY SUCH CLAIMS YOU 
BRING ON BEHALF OF AN UNRELATED ACCOUNTHOLDER.
Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. Any dispute 
regarding  whether  a  particular  controversy  is  subject  to  arbitration,  or  the  applicability  or 
enforceability of the foregoing paragraph, will be decided by a court and not by an arbitrator.

If you or we elect to arbitrate a Claim, the electing party must notify the other party in writing. 
The notice can be given after the beginning of a lawsuit and can be given in papers filed in the 
lawsuit. Otherwise, your notice must be sent to Bankcard Services, Attn: Arbitration Demand, 
P.O. Box 4477, Beaverton, Oregon 97076, and our notice must be sent to the most recent 
address for you in our files. The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration 
Association (the “AAA”) under its rules in effect at the time an arbitration is commenced that 
are applicable to the resolution of consumer disputes (the “Arbitration Rules”). We will tell you 
how to contact the AAA and how to get a copy of the Arbitration Rules without cost if you ask 
us in writing to do so. The Arbitration Rules permit you to request deferral or reduction of the 
administrative fees of arbitration if paying them would cause you a hardship. In addition, if you 
ask us in writing, we will consider your request to pay any or all of your costs of arbitration.
Each arbitrator shall be a licensed attorney who has been engaged in the private practice of law 
continuously during the ten years immediately preceding the arbitration or a retired judge of a 
court of general or appellate jurisdiction. The arbitration award shall award only such relief as a 
court of competent jurisdiction could properly award under applicable law, including attorneys’ 
fees if allowed by applicable law or agreement. All statutes of limitation, defenses, and attorney-
client and other privileges that would apply in a court proceeding will apply in the arbitration. 
If  any  provision  of  this  Section  regarding  arbitration  of  disputes  shall  be  deemed  to  be 
unenforceable, the remainder of this Section shall be given full force and effect. However, if 
the provision precluding class, representative or private attorney general Claims in arbitration 
is deemed unenforceable, then this entire Arbitration Agreement shall be void and of no force 
and effect.
You may reject this provision, in which case, only a court may be used to resolve any dispute 
or Claim. Rejection will not affect any other aspect of the Account Agreement. To reject this 
Provision, you must send us a notice within 60 days after you open your Account or we first 
provide you with a right to reject this Provision. This notice must include your name, address 
and Account number and be mailed to Bankcard Services, Attn: Arbitration Provision, P.O. Box 
4477, Beaverton, Oregon 97076. This is the only way you can reject this Provision.

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:

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.

2.  Within 90 days of receiving your letter, we must either correct the error or explain to you 

why we believe the bill is correct.

While we investigate whether or not there has been an error:

•  We cannot try to collect the 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.

•  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 then send you a statement 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 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 first $50 of the amount you 
question, even if your bill is correct.

Your Rights If You Are Dissatisfied With Your Account Purchases
If you are dissatisfied with the goods or services that you have purchased with your Account, 
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:

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. (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  Account  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: Bankcard Services, P.O. Box 4499, Beaverton, OR 97076-4499.
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.
