HOW WE CALCULATE YOUR BALANCE 
We use a method called “Average Daily Balance (including new purchases)”

EXPLANATION OF DEFAULT APR 
Default is defined as failure to make at least the minimum payment of 4% of account balance by 10 days after the due date on the statement, or 
exceeding your assigned credit limit by more than 3%, or making a payment to us that is returned.  The default rate may be assessed at our option. In 
the event your account is moved to the default rate, the default rate will remain in effect until you request us to reevaluate it, but in no case will be in 
effect for less than one year. 

VARIABLE RATE INFORMATION 
Variable rate based on Wall Street Journal Prime + margin of 7%; rate can change at the end of the calendar quarter. If the Prime Rate increases, 
variable APR’s will increase.  In that case, you may pay more interest and have a higher Minimum Payment Due. 

DEFAULT STATUS AND REWARDS 
If your credit card account is cancelled or closed for any reason, the related UChoose® Reward Points will be forfeited on the date of cancellation 
or closure. If your credit card account is closed, becomes delinquent or in default, you will not continue to earn Reward Points and the Reward 
Points associated with your credit card account will not be available for redemption. Both posted and pending Reward Points may also be forfeited 
depending upon your credit card account status. 

HOW YOUR UCHOOSE® REWARDS PROGRAM WORKS

do not include cash advances.1 No points are awarded for finance charges, fees, foreign currency conversion charges or insurance charges to your
