Credit Card Offer that Gives a Free Cup of Coffee
Are you a person who cannot start his or her morning without a cup of strong hot black coffee? Do you like to go out with friends to the coffee shop for a cup of espresso with a piece of carrot cake? If you are such a person, Starbucks is probably well-known to you!
Do you know about a new way to earn free cappuccinos and lattes? You can get your favorite coffee for free with help of a new credit card offer from Chase bank- Starbucks Card Platinum Duetto Visa Card-the unique credit card offer that can help you to enjoy your coffee faster and more convenient!
Starbucks Card Platinum can be called a revolutionary credit card offer! As it is a combination of a Reloadable Starbucks Card and a Visa credit card in one. That's why the credit card carries 2 magnetic stripes: one stripe for regular purchases, the other one for purchases within Starbucks Coffee Shops.
The in-store portion of the credit card allows the customers to pay for their coffee without signing the receipt. So the credit card works just like a Starbucks gift card. It speeds up the service at cash register, so the process of buying Venti or low fat espresso is becoming faster!
Another nice perk is the rewards you can get with this card. Customers earn Duetto Dollars with every purchase. Duetto Dollars may be spend on purchasing of any kind of coffee or cakes you want in participating Starbucks locations.
As a bonus Visa and Starbucks offer 10 Duetto Dollars for the first purchase made with this credit card. You will also earn one additional Duetto Dollar for every 100$ spent for every day purchases. The good news is that the rebates do not expire and there is no limit to the rebates that can be earned.
Starbucks Visa credit card offers 0% APR for 6 months, no annual fee, reasonable interest rates for purchases and balance transfers. You can enjoy all the benefits of a platinum credit card: auto rental and travel accident insurance, as well as extended warranties on purchases.
Using Starbucks Visa credit card you also will be able to take part in charity. 5 dollars will be donated on your behalf to the Starbucks Foundation to CARE, the world's leading humanitarian organizations. So paying for coffee with Starbucks Visa credit card offer you will help people and make the world a better place for them!
But Starbucks Visa credit card has some disadvantages. The card is made for people with a very good credit history, so not everyone can get it. Another disadvantage is high APR- it is about 15%.
The customers of Starbucks say that they are thankful to Chase bank and Visa for such a great credit card offer. They think that a cup of free coffee at their favorite coffee shop is the best reward ever. They are happy that now with Starbucks Card Platinum Duetto Visa Card the coffee lovers can enjoy their morning coffee or a cup during a business meeting much faster!
