BIG CARD ON CAMPUS
Maybe you're already familiar with the popular new 12% VISA® Card recently introduced by Colonial Savings. But, if you don't know about it yet, get set for a very quick, very exciting education.
For the first time in the State of Kansas, Colonial Savings is able to offer a new 12% VISA® Card that lets you set your own credit limit . . . with no up-front credit check! Unbelievable? Well, it's true. And if that isn't amazing enough, get this: Our new VISA® Card gives you the same worldwide acceptance any other VISA® Card does, but you get it at an annual interest rate that's one-third lower! That's right. Instead of the usual 18% charge, your Colonial Savings VISA® Card interest rate is only 12%!
NEW "POCKET POWER"
To get your 12% VISA® Card, all you need is a savings account at Colonial Savings with a minimum balance of $1,000. A lot of money? Well, not really . . . especially when you consider all the things it *does* for you. First, it acts as security for your credit card, allowing you to have our VISA® Card at the 12% interest rate instead of 18%. Next, your Colonial VISA® Card lets you make purchases, or handle emergency cash needs (books, school clothes . . . even *uition*) while your savings remain intact -- earning daily compounded interest on the full amount you have on deposit. With the "pocket power" your
VISA® Card provides, you'll probably never need to write another "send-money" letter again!
And don't forget the final benefit we mentioned earlier.
You tell us what your credit limit will be, by the amount you deposit. Since your credit limit is 50% of that amount, you get a $500 credit limit with a $1,000 deposit, a $1,000 limit with a $2,000 deposit -- and so on.
But what if you already have a VISA® Card? You can keep it and have ours, too – and use them both! But remember, we'll only charge you 12% interest. The other card probably charges you 18%.
