Agreement will take effect unless you contact us to cancel your Account within 30 days after we sent you this Agreement. 

ACCOUNT USE:  Your Account use is subject to this Agreement.  You represent and warrant that the Account will be used solely  
for business and commercial purposes and not for any personal, family or household purpose. We may close your Account if we learn 
that  you  are  using  it  for  personal,  family  or  household  purposes.  You  agree  to  comply  with  all  laws,  statutes,  regulations  and 
ordinances pertaining to the conduct of your business and you agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from any damages, liabilities, 
costs, expenses (including attorneys’ fees) or other harm arising out of any violation thereof. This indemnity agreement will survive 
termination of your Account and this Agreement. All Transactions are subject to our approval. You may use your Card to purchase 
goods  and  services  in  person,  online,  and  by  mail  or  telephone  from  merchants  and  others  who  accept  MasterCard  credit  cards.  In 
addition, you may obtain cash advances from the Credit Union, from other financial institutions or select merchants participating in

or  ATMs  provide  such  access.  You  will  need  to  use  your  Personal  Identification  Number  (PIN)  to  obtain  a  cash  advance  from  an 
ATM. A PIN may be obtained by calling (888) 891-2435. Finally, you may use your Account to transfer balances from other creditors, 
provided that we approve your request. Balance Transfers are subject to a $500 minimum transfer amount requirement. 

DELIVERY  AND  DISTRIBUTION  OF  CARDS:  All  Cards  issued  pursuant  to  this  Agreement  will  be  mailed  or  otherwise 
delivered to the address of the Business we have in our records. The Business shall be solely responsible for the distribution of Cards 
to Authorized Users. 

PROGRAM  ADMINISTRATOR:  You  agree  that  each  individual  who  signs  the  credit  application  (each  an  authorized  “Program 
Administrator”)  will  actively  manage  this  Account  and  any  services  obtained  in  connection  with  this  Agreement.  You  agree  and 
acknowledge that we may rely on all instructions and information we receive from each Program Administrator regarding the Account 
and  any  services  obtained  under  this  Agreement.  The  Program  Administrator’s  responsibilities  include  the  following:  (i)  making 
Authorized Users aware that  advances  from the  Account are for business  use only; (ii) ensuring timely payments; (iii)  notifying  us 
immediately, and confirming in writing within three (3) business days, if an Authorized User's authority to generate advances on the 
Account has been or will be revoked (because of a termination of employment or for any other reason); (iv) using reasonable efforts to 
collect  and  dispose  of  Cards,  Checks  and  other  access  devices  from  Authorized  Users  when  authority  to  generate  advances  are 
revoked; and (v) at our request, notifying us of an Authorized User's last known address and telephone number. 

PROMISE TO PAY: You must pay us for all amounts due on your Account, including: (1) Transactions you make, even if you did 
not present your Card or sign for the Transaction; (2) Transactions an Authorized User makes; (3) Transactions that other people make 
if  you or an Authorized User let them  use  your  Account;  and (4) any  fees and interest  charges on the  Account. Your agreement to 
repay us extends to the use of the Account by you or any other person you permit to use the Account, even if that person exceeds your 
permission. You cannot disclaim responsibility by notifying us, although we will close the Account if you so request. The Business is 
liable on this Agreement. This means that we may require the Business to pay all amounts due under this Agreement, including credit 
advances made by any Authorized User, even if it exceeds the authorized Credit Limit. The Cards remain our property and you must 
recover and surrender to us all Cards upon our request and/or upon termination of this Account. 

CREDIT  LIMIT  AND  CASH  ADVANCE  LIMIT:  We assign a Credit  Limit to  your Account. Part of this  Credit  Limit  may be 
available for Cash Advances. Your Cash Advance Limit is 50% of your available credit. Your Credit Limit will be reflected on each 
periodic statement. You agree to manage  your Account so that: (1) your  Account Balance (including fees and charges) is not  more  
than your Credit Limit; and (2) your Cash Advance balance (including fees and charges) is not more than your Cash Advance Limit. 
However,  if  your  Account  Balance  exceeds  your  Credit  Limit  or  Cash  Advance  Limit,  you  are  still  obligated  to  pay  us.  We  may 
increase or decrease your Credit Limit at any time and we may notify you of such increase or decrease by mail or through a statement 
sent to the primary accountholder’s address of record, in accordance with applicable legal requirements. If you object to any Credit 
Limit increase,  you  must notify  us immediately. Only a Program  Administrator may request a change to the Credit Limit orally, in 
writing,  or  electronically,  but  any  such  request  must  be  approved  by  us.  If  your  Credit  Limit  is  increased,  you  are  immediately 
responsible for the new Credit Limit and any increase in the Account Balance even when it differs from an amount previously agreed 
to orally or in writing. 

UNLAWFUL TRANSACTIONS: Your Card or Account may not be used directly or indirectly in a manner that would constitute a 
crime under local, state or federal law, or in any illegal activity, including without limitation (1) any “racketeering activity” as defined 
in 18 U.S.C. § 1961, or (2) any gambling, gaming, betting, or similar activity or transaction. Further, you may not use your Card or 
Account for the purchase of any goods or services on the Internet that involve gambling, gaming, betting, or any similar transaction or 
activity.  Such  transactions  include,  but  are  not  limited  to,  any  quasi-cash  or  online  gambling  transaction,  any  electronic  commerce 
transaction conducted over an open network, and any betting  transaction including the  purchase of lottery tickets or  casino  gaming 
chips/checks or off-track betting or wagering.  Display of a payment card logo by an online merchant does not mean that internet

gambling or other transactions are legal in the jurisdiction in which you are located. However, in the event that a charge or transaction 
described in this paragraph is approved and processed, you will still be responsible for such charges. If you use your Card or Account 
directly or indirectly in an unlawful manner you understand that your Account may be declared in default and that we may exercise 
any  rights  available  to  us,  including,  but  not  limited  to,  accelerating  your  Account  Balance  and  demanding  immediate  payment 
thereof. 

MOBILE  PHONES  OR  OTHER  DEVICES:  Smart  phones,  tablets  and  other  electronic  devices  can  store  your  Card  (such  as 
through a mobile wallet). This means they can be used to make Purchases or other Transactions. Any such Transactions are covered  
by  this  Agreement.  Apps  that  use  your  Card  to  make  Transactions  may  have  separate  terms  of  use.  We  are  not  responsible  if  you 
violate those terms, or for any consequences resulting from any violation. 

AGREEMENT AND BENEFIT CHANGES 

CHANGES  TO  THIS  AGREEMENT:  Account and Agreement terms are not guaranteed for any period of time. We may change  
this Agreement for any reason and at any time, subject to applicable law. This means that we can change rates and fees that apply to 
your Account. It also means we can add, remove, replace or modify provisions of this Agreement. If required by applicable law, we 
will give you notice of the changes. If we notify you of a change, we may do so on your periodic statement or send you a separate 
written notice, either of which may be sent to you in an electronic format if you have agreed to receive notices from us electronically. 
Except as prohibited by law, any change in terms will apply to your existing Account Balance as well as to future Transactions. We 
may change the terms of this Agreement based on information in your credit report, market conditions, business strategy or for any 
other reason. 

CHANGING BENEFITS: We reserve the right to change or discontinue any benefit, rewards program, service or feature offered in 
connection with your Account, at any time and for any reason. 

ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATES AND INTEREST CHARGES 

MASTERCARD VARIABLE RATE PROGRAM: This section explains how we calculate rates and interest charges applicable to 
your Account. We use annual percentage rates (APRs) to calculate interest charges on your Account. Our MasterCard program is a 
variable rate program, which means that your APR may increase or decrease each Billing Period while you maintain your Account 
with us.  The APR that applies to your Account may vary with changes to the U.S. Prime Rate.       The U.S. Prime Rate is the highest 
U.S.  Prime  Rate  published  in  The  Wall  Street  Journal  (the  “Index”).  In  the  event  that  the  U.S.  Prime  Rate  ceases  to  be  published, 
changes in your APR will be related to a comparable index and we will inform you on your periodic statement or through a separate 
notice. 

Your  APR  is  subject  to  change  each  Billing  Period  based  on  an  increase  or  decrease  in  the  Index.  We  calculate  your  APR  for 
Transactions by adding an amount, which we call the Margin, to the Index in effect as of the 15th day of each month preceding the  
start  date  of  each  Billing  Period. These  dates  are  referred  to  by  us  as  “Adjustment  Dates.”  You  can  find  the  initial  Index,  Margin, 
Monthly  Periodic  Rate  and  corresponding  APR  we  use  for  your  Account  listed  above  in  the  section  entitled  Pricing  Information  
Table. 

Your APR will increase if the Index increases and decrease if the Index decreases. If your APR increases, then your interest charges 
and Minimum Payment Due may increase. If the Index changes, we will apply the new variable APR starting from the first day of the 
Billing Period after we take the Index from The Wall Street Journal. The new APR will apply to existing balances, as well as balances 
added to your Account after the change. We may waive an increase in the APR when such an increase can be made, but such a waiver 
will not be construed as a waiver of our right to increase the APR at a future date when entitled to do so. 

There is no minimum APR that can apply during the term of this Agreement. The maximum APR that can apply during the term of  
this Agreement is 18.00%. There are no annual (or other) limitations on changes in the APR during the term of this Agreement. 

PENALTY  ANNUAL  PERCENTAGE  RATE:  If  you  have a late or returned payment that causes  your  Account to be sixty (60) 
days past due, we may apply a penalty APR to your Account. The penalty APR is 18.00% (corresponding Monthly Periodic Rate of 
1.5%).  .

INTEREST CHARGES: Interest charges will be imposed on Transactions only if you elect not to pay the entire Account Balance 
shown  on  your  periodic  statement  by  the  Payment  Due  Date.  If  you  elect  not  to  pay  the  entire  Account  Balance  shown  on  your  
periodic statement by the Payment Due Date, interest charges will be imposed on the unpaid Average Daily Balance of Transactions 
from  the  previous  statement  closing  date  and  on  the  new  Transactions  from  the  date  of  posting  to  your  account  during  the  current 
Billing Period, and will continue to accrue until the closing date of the Billing Period preceding the date on which the entire Account 
Balance is paid in full. 

We  calculate  interest  on  your  Account  each  Billing  Period  by  applying  the  Monthly  Periodic  Rate  to  the  Average  Daily  Balance 
(including new Transactions). The following explains how we do this. To get the Average Daily Balance: 

•  We start with the beginning balance of your account each day. 
•  We add any new Transactions, fees and other charges 
•  We subtract any credits or payments credited as of that day and any unpaid interest or other finance charges. 
•  This gives us the daily balance. Then, we add up all 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. 

GRACE PERIOD: You will not pay any interest on Purchases if you pay the Account Balance, including any Balance Transfers, in 
full  by  the  Payment  Due  Date  shown  on  your  periodic  statement  each  Billing  Period.  We  call  this  a  grace  period  on  Purchases. 
Generally  you  will  have  at  least  a  25-day  grace  period  from  the  close  of  each  Billing  Period  to  pay  the  Account  Balance  without 
incurring  additional  interest.    The  Payment  Due  Date  disclosed  on  each  periodic  statement  provided  to  you  is  the  last  day  of  your  
grace period for that statement’s billing cycle. If you do not pay the Account Balance, including any Balance Transfers, in full by the 
Payment Due Date in a Billing Period, you will pay interest on your Purchases from the date they are posted to your Account. You 
also  will  not  have  a  grace  period  on  Purchases  again  until  you  pay  the  Account  Balance  in  full  by  the  Payment  Due  Date  two  (2) 
Billing Periods in a row. 

There is no grace period on Cash Advances. This means you will pay interest on Cash Advances from the date these transactions post 
to your Account.

FOREIGN TRANSACTIONS:  Purchases, cash advances, and credits made in foreign currencies   will be billed to your Account in 
U.S. dollars. The conversion to U.S. dollars will be made in accordance with the MasterCard operating regulations for international 
transactions.  In  the  event  that  an  international  transaction  is  converted  to  U.S.  dollars  the  exchange  rate  between  the  transaction 
currency and the billing currency used for processing  international transactions  will be:  (1) a rate selected by MasterCard from  the 
range of rates available in wholesale currency markets for the applicable central processing date, which rate may vary from the rate 
MasterCard itself receives; or (2) the government-mandated rate in effect for the applicable central processing date. The Credit Union 
has no control over the conversion rate. The rate in effect on the applicable processing date may differ from the rate on the date you 
used  your  Card.  When  a  credit  to  the  account  does  not  fully  offset  a  charge  to  the  account  due  to  changes  in  the  rate,  you  are 
responsible for the difference. For Purchases, Cash Advances, and ATM transactions, we will charge a Foreign Transaction Fee in an 
amount  equal  to  one  percent  (1%)  of  the  amount  of  the  Purchase,  Cash  Advance  or  ATM  transaction,  regardless  of  whether  the 
transaction requires a currency conversion. 

The above fees for the Billing Period will be shown on your periodic statement. 

PAYMENTS 

MINIMUM PAYMENT: Every month, you must pay at least the Minimum Payment Due by the Payment Due Date shown on your 
periodic statement.  The Minimum Payment Due will be either (1) 2.0% of your Account Balance or $25.00, whichever is greater;   or 
(2) your Account Balance if it is less than $25.00. In addition, you must pay any amount past due, any late charge and any amount 
over the Credit Limit. 

APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS: We decide how to apply your payments, up to the Minimum Monthly Payment amount, to the 
balances on your Account. We will apply the Minimum Monthly Payment amount in the following order: (1) periodic interest charges 
and  fees;  (2)  outstanding  balances  of  Cash  Advances,  Balance  Transfers,  and  Purchases  previously  billed,  starting  with  the  lowest  
APR first, and (3) current Cash Advances, Balance Transfers and Purchases, starting with the lowest APR first. If you pay more than 
the Minimum Payment Due amount, the amount in excess of the Minimum Payment Due will be applied first to the balances subject  
to the highest APR and then to balances subject to lower APRs, in descending order of APRs until all balances subject to an APR are 
paid in full. You must continue to make payments until you have paid the Account Balance in full. 

PAYMENT  INSTRUCTIONS:  You  must  follow  the  instructions  below  when  making  a  payment.  If  you  do,  we  will  credit  the 
payment to your Account as of the day we receive it. 

•  Payments should be sent to Kinecta Federal Credit Union, Attention: Card Services Department, P.O. Box 60083, City of 

Industry, CA 91716. 

•  We must receive your payment on or before the Payment Due Date in order for your Account to be credited by the Payment 

Due Date. 

•  You must pay in U.S. Dollars. 
•  You must use a check or electronic debit issued by a financial institution in the United States (do not mail cash). 
•  You must not send us a check dated after the date that we receive it. 
•  You must not enclose more than one check per envelope. 
•  You must not include any restrictive endorsements on the check. 
•  You must follow any additional payment instructions shown on your periodic statement. 

If  you do not pay in U.S. Dollars and  we accept  your payment,  we  will select the currency conversion rate, and  you  must pay our  
costs.  If  you  do  not  follow  our  payment  instructions,  we  may  not  accept  your  payment,  or  there  may  be  a  delay  in  crediting  your 
Account. Either may result in late fees and additional interest charges to your Account.  If you do not follow the payment instructions 
in this Agreement or on your periodic statement, we may accept your payment without losing our rights. 

PREPAYMENT  OR  IRREGULAR  PAYMENTS:  Though  you  need  only  pay  the  Minimum  Payment  Due,  you  understand  that  
you have the right to repay your Account Balance at any time without penalty. You also understand and agree that you will only be 
charged interest charges to the date you repay your entire Account Balance.  You may make larger payments without penalty and  this 

6 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
may reduce the total amount of interest charges that you will repay. If you pay more than the Minimum Payment Due in any month 
and  there  is  still  a  balance  due,  you  must  continue  to  make  Minimum  Payments  in  future  months.  Any  partial  payment  of  your 
Account Balance will not advance your next payment due date(s). You understand and agree that any payment that (a) delays or (b) 
accelerates the repayment of your Account Balance will (a) increase or (b) decrease your Monthly Periodic interest charge. 

PAYMENTS  BY  AUTOMATIC  TRANSFER:  By  separate  agreement,  you  may  authorize  us  to  automatically    transfer    the 
Minimum  Payment  Due  from  your  Credit  Union  savings  or  checking  account.  If  you  request  payment  by  automatic  transfer,  you 
understand and agree that no payment can or will be made if there are insufficient or uncollected funds in the designated savings or 
checking account to  make the scheduled payment.  Should this event occur,  you  understand and agree that  you  will  not be released 
from  making  the  payment.  Any  automatic  transfer  you  have  requested  will  remain  in  effect  until  you  cancel  it  in  writing  or  the 
Account Balance is paid in  full. To stop a payment by automatic transfer,  you  may  send us a letter requesting that the payment be 
stopped. Your letter must be received by Kinecta Federal Credit Union, Attention: Card Services Department, P.O. 217, Manhattan 
Beach 90267, at least three (3) business days before the automatic payment is scheduled to occur. We may cancel this service at our 
discretion. 

PAYMENTS MARKED “PAID IN FULL”: Payments marked “paid in full” or other language used to indicate full satisfaction of 
indebtedness  may  be  accepted  by  us  without  being  bound  by  such  language  or  waiving  any  rights  under  this  Agreement.  We  will 
accept full satisfaction of indebtedness only in a written agreement, signed by an authorized representative of the Credit Union.

TRANSACTIONS 

REFUSAL OF THE CARD: Most Transactions require approval of funds, which result in placing a hold against your Credit Limit. 
We do not guarantee approval of Transactions. We are not liable for those that are not approved, even if you have enough available 
credit on your Account. We may also limit the number of Transactions approved per day. We may, although we are not required to, 
approve Transactions above your available Credit Limit. 

SUSPICIOUS  ACTIVITY:  We  are  committed  to  keeping  your  financial  transactions  as  secure  as  possible.  We  use  a  credit  card  
fraud  detection  system  designed  using  neural  network  technology  that  “learns”  your  credit  card  purchase  patterns.  The    system 
analyzes authorization requests for your Card in real time and compares them to your purchase history as well as current fraud trends. 
If we detect unusual transaction patterns, we can take action to reduce the potential for fraud, including but not limited to suspending 
credit  privileges.  As  your  profile  and  transactions  change  over  time,  the  system  updates  its  files.  We  reserve  the  right  to  identify 
Transactions  as  unauthorized  or  fraudulent  and  subsequently  to  decline  those  Transactions.  We  are  not  responsible  for  any  loss  or 
damage arising out of any declined Transaction. 

TRAVEL  ADVISORY:    A  Transaction  in  a  geographic  area  where  you  do  not  usually  use  your  Card  may  trigger  the  credit  card  
fraud detection system. We encourage  you to provide us  with prior notice of any anticipated Card activity that  may be out of  your 
ordinary pattern of Card Transactions, such as high transaction amounts, high transaction volume, any anticipated transactions outside 
of the geographic areas  where you normally  use  your card, and any anticipated transactions outside the U.S. You  may provide this 
notice by calling: 

•  Domestic: (877) 881-6023 
• 
•  To verify Account activity if Card is blocked:  (877) 881-6023. 

International:  (310) 643-2106 

MERCHANT FEES: Some merchants, including merchants outside the U.S., may charge you a fee to use your Card for a Purchase. 
The fee will be either a percentage of the amount of your Purchase or a flat fee, and will be added to the amount of your Purchase. 
Usually, a merchant will tell you about this fee before you use your Card, but not always. We do not control these fees and we cannot 
prevent them. 

MERCHANT DISPUTES: The Credit Union is not responsible for the refusal of any merchant or financial institution to honor the 
Account  and/or  Card.  We  are  subject  to  claims  and  defenses  (other  than  tort  claims)  arising  out  of  goods  or  services  you  purchase  
with the Card only if you have made a good faith attempt but have been unable to obtain satisfaction from the merchant, and (1) your 
Purchase was made in response to an advertisement we sent or participated in sending you; or (2) your Purchase cost more than $50 
and was made from a merchant in your state or within 100 miles of your current mailing address. Any other dispute you must resolve 
directly with the merchant. 

RETURNS AND ADJUSTMENTS: If a merchant discloses a policy such as “no returns,” “no refunds,” “no return or credit without 
receipt,” “as is,” “store credit only” or “all sales final,”  you  will be bound by that policy  when  you  use  your Card to buy goods or 
services  from  that  merchant.  A  merchant  refund  to  your  Account  will  post  to  your  Account  as  a  credit.  We  do  not  control  when  a 
merchant sends an Account credit.  We will choose how to apply the credit to your existing Account Balance.  If a credit fails to post  
to your  Account,  you  may request our help in having the  credit applied to your Account by sending us a copy of the credit receipt 
issued by the merchant. You have the sole responsibility to obtain written proof of credit and to retain copies of credit receipts until  
the  credit  is  properly  applied to  your  Account.  If  your  credits  and  payments  exceed  what  you  owe  us,  we  will  hold  and  apply  this  
credit  balance  against  future  Transactions,  or  if  it  is  $1.00  or  more,  refund  it  on  your  written  request  or  automatically  after  six  (6) 
months. 

RECURRING  AUTHORIZED  TRANSACTIONS:  If  you  authorize  a  merchant  or  any  other  person  to  charge  your  Account  for 
recurring Transactions, you must notify the merchant if: 
•  You want to discontinue these Transactions; 
•  Your Account is closed; 
•  Your Account number changes; 
•  Your Card expiration date changes. 

You are responsible for reinstating any recurring authorized Transactions. 

INTERNET  TRANSACTIONS:  You  may  activate  your  Card  in  MasterCard’s  SecureCode®  program  at  www.kinecta.org.  To 
complete  transactions  over  the  Internet,  merchants  may  request  your  SecureCode®  password  to  complete  the  transactions.  If  a 
password is not provided, or you do not successfully register with SecureCode®, the merchant may deny the transaction.   If the 

10 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
password  is  incorrect,  we  may  deny  the  transaction.  You  can  select  or  change  your  password  and  view  additional  terms  online  by 
visiting www.kinecta.org and clicking on the SecureCode® links under the credit card page. You acknowledge and agree that if you 
disclose your SecureCode® password to another person, you are authorizing that person to transact on your Account. 

TERMS AND CONDITIONS APPLICABLE TO MASTERCARD CONVENIENCE CHECKS 

CHECK  USES:  Convenience Checks (including balance transfer checks) are checks that the Credit Union may send you to access 
your  Account  from  time  to  time.  The  following  terms    will  apply  to  the  use  of  those  checks  unless  otherwise  disclosed  with  the  
checks.    You  can  use  your  Convenience  Checks  to  purchase  goods  and  services,  to  obtain  cash  up  to  the  amount  of  your  Cash  
Advance  Limit,  or  to  conduct  Balance  Transfers  up  to  the  amount  of  your  Credit  Limit.  Use  of  Convenience  Checks  to  purchase  
goods and services or to obtain cash up to the amount of your Credit Limit is considered a Cash Advance on your account. The Credit 
Union  will  charge  interest  beginning  as  of  the  date  the  Credit  Union  receives  the  Convenience  Check.  You  cannot  avoid  paying 
interest on Convenience Check transactions. Any special rules applicable to credit card purchases described in this Agreement or any 
other  features  pertaining  to  card  purchases  do  not  apply  to  Convenience  Checks.  Convenience  Checks  do    not    earn  Cash  Back 
Rewards. 

LIMITATIONS:  We are not required to honor a Convenience Check that will cause you to exceed your Credit Limit. We will not  
pay a Convenience Check if at the time that it is presented: 

•  You are in default or we have suspended, terminated, or canceled your Account; 

•  The Convenience Check is not in the form we have issued to you; 

•  Your signature or the payee’s name or endorsement is missing on the Convenience Check or the Convenience Check appears 

altered; or 

•  Your Convenience Check is post-dated. 

Convenience  Checks  may  be  used  only  by  the  person(s)  whose  name(s)  is/are  printed  on  the  check.  You  are  responsible  for  all 
authorized use of Convenience Checks. You may not use Convenience Checks to make a payment on any other obligation you have 
with the Credit Union, including paying any amount that you owe us pursuant to this Agreement. Certain merchants may inform you 
of their intent to convert your Convenience Check payment to an electronic ACH debit. For mailed payments, this notification will be 
provided at the time you receive a bill. For payments made in person, this notification will be provided at the time payment is made. 
You understand and agree that Convenience Checks are ineligible for conversion to an ACH debit and if presented by a merchant to us 
for payment, we are required to reject and return the entry. Using Convenience Checks for payments to merchants who have notified 
you of their intent to convert your check to an ACH debit may result in merchant returned item fees and/or late charges. You further 
understand  and  agree  that  you  may  not  attempt  to  authorize  a  one-time  advance  from  your  Account  via  ACH  by  providing  check 
information (such as the routing, account, and serial numbers) to a merchant or other payee in person, via the Internet or by telephone 
for the purpose of having such merchant or other payee electronically initiate a funds transfer. The Credit Union will not be liable for 
any fees you incur as a result of the Credit Union’s failure to honor a Convenience Check that is converted to an ACH debit. 

PERIODIC  STATEMENTS:  Your  periodic  statement  will  show  you  an  itemization  of  the  Convenience  Checks  posted  to  your 
Account  during  the  Billing  Period.  Convenience  Checks  paid  by  the  Credit  Union  will  not  be  returned  to  you  with  your  periodic 
statement. 

RETURNED  CONVENIENCE  CHECK  FEE:  The Credit Union will charge you a Returned Convenience Check Fee of $25 per 
returned  check  which  will  be  billed  to  your  Account  if  a  Convenience  Check(s)  cannot  be  paid.  The  Credit  Union  may  decline  to 
honor such Convenience Checks if, for example: 

•  The amount of the Convenience Check would cause you to exceed your Cash Advance Credit Limit; 

• 

• 

• 

If you are in default; 

If you did not comply with the instructions included with the Convenience Check; 

If the Convenience Check appears altered or is missing information; 

•  The Convenience Check was used by someone other than the person to whom the Convenience Check was sent; 

•  The Card has expired or was revoked; 

•  Your Account is closed or suspended; or 

•  The Convenience Check was converted to an ACH transaction. 

11 

 
 
 
 
STOP  PAYMENT:  Provided  your  request  is  timely,  you  may  order  a  stop  payment  on  a  Convenience  Check  drawn  on    your  
Account. To stop payment on a Convenience Check, you must call us at (877) 881-6023 during regular business hours and provide us 
with the following information: the Account number, the payee, any check number that may be applicable, and the exact amount of  
the Convenience Check. If you order a stop payment on a Convenience Check orally, the order will be valid for only fourteen (14) 
days  thereafter,  unless  confirmed  in  writing.  Written  stop  payment  orders  will  remain  in  effect  only  for  six  (6)  months,    unless  
renewed in writing. You have the burden of establishing the fact and amount of loss resulting from payment contrary to a binding stop 
payment.  The  Credit  Union  is  not  required  to  notify  you  when  a  stop  payment  order  expires.  If  the  Credit  Union  re-credits  your 
Account after paying a Convenience Check over a valid and timely stop payment order, you agree to sign a statement describing the 
dispute with the payee, to assign to the Credit Union all of your rights against the payee or other holders of the check and to assist the 
Credit Union in any legal action. You agree to indemnify and hold the Credit Union harmless from all costs and expenses, including 
attorneys’ fees, damages, or claims, related to the Credit Union honoring your stop payment request or in failing to stop payment of an 
item as a result of incorrect information provided to the Credit Union or the giving of  inadequate time to act  upon a stop payment 
request. 

SURRENDER OF CONVENIENCE CHECKS: Convenience Checks are the Credit Union’s property; the Credit Union reserves 
the right to revoke them at any time. You agree to return them at the Credit Union’s request. 

MISCELLANEOUS 

PROMOTIONAL  RATE  OFFERS:  From time to time and at our discretion, we may offer you a promotional APR for all or any 
part of your  Account Balance, Balance Transfer or future transactions.  The period of time for  which the promotional APR applies

understand  that  your  total  liability  to  us  will  not  exceed  $50.00  for  any  Account  and/or  Card  Transactions  resulting  from  the  loss,   
theft,  or  other  unauthorized  use  of  the  Account  and/or  Card  that  occurs  prior  to  the  time  you  give  notice  to  us.  Your  liability  for 
unauthorized use may be lower in cases of MasterCard fraud in accordance with current MasterCard, Inc. Operating Rules. 

You agree that in the event of a lost, stolen, not received or counterfeited card or fraudulent activity on  your  Account,  you and all 
parties given access to the Account will complete an affidavit of forgery in a form approved by the Credit Union. You also agree to 
assist us in determining the facts, circumstances, and other pertinent information related to any loss, theft or possible unauthorized use 
of  your  Card,  Account  number  or  PIN  and  to  comply  with  such  other  procedures  as  we  may  require  in  connection  with  our 
investigation. 

INACTIVE  ACCOUNT:  If your  Account does not have any activity  for twelve (12) consecutive  months, it  will be considered an 
inactive account and your ability to take advances against your Credit Limit may be suspended. If your Account is inactive for twenty-
four (24) consecutive months, we may close it. 

PERIODIC STATEMENTS: Your Card or other Account activity will be reflected on your periodic statement (Statement). We will 
send you a Statement for each Billing Period in which Transaction activity has occurred on your Account, and at least quarterly if no 
activity  has  occurred.  Your  Statement  will  identify  the  merchant,  electronic  terminal,  or  financial  institution  at  which  transactions  
were made, but sales, cash advance, credit, or other receipts cannot be returned with the Statement. You agree to retain the copy of 
such receipts furnished at the time of the transaction in order to reconcile your Statement. If you request a copy of any sales draft or 
similar  document,  a  Document  Copy  Fee  may  be  imposed  by  us.  This  fee  will  not  be  imposed,  however,  if  it  was  requested  in 
connection with a billing error. Statements will be mailed or delivered electronically if you have agreed to receive notices from us in 
an electronic format only to the address of the person named first on the Account. 

ASSIGNMENT: We may sell, transfer or assign this Agreement and your Account to a third party at any time without notifying you. 
You may not sell, assign or transfer your Account or any of your obligations under this Agreement.

to enforce them. If any provision of this Agreement is found to be unenforceable, all other provisions of the Agreement will remain in 
effect.
