* The ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE is subject to change the day after next month’s statement date to reflect any changes in the Index and will be determined by the Prime Rate on the 15th of each month of each year as published in The Wall Street Journal “Money Rates” table to which we add a margin. The ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE will never be greater than 18.00%. Any increase in the ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE will take the form of additional payments shown as Total Minimum Payments on the statement. If the index is no longer available, the Credit Union will choose a new index which is based upon comparable information.
Each Credit Card account is reviewed semi-annually and rate adjusted according to credit risk score.
