COI date March 2009 Offshore credit cards are creditcard s issued by an offshore bank in a jurisdiction that is different to that of the cardholder. Real unsecured offshore credit cards with Line of creditcredit line s are very difficult for the average person to obtain because banks refuse to issue them. Most banks will need possession of reliable credit history credit histories and a means of getting their money back. If a customer is somewhere offshore the risk of extending a credit line is too great and so as a result these cards are only issued to clients that have long standing relationships with the bank in question. Since it is almost impossible to get one, if you see an unsecured offshore creditcard advertised online beware it is probably a scam. ref http www.quatloos.com offscams uncards.htm ref Secured cards Unreferenced section date March 2009 Since most banks will not offer credit lines without some kind of insurance , they offer secured offshore credit cards as an alternative. Secured offshore credit cards involve depositing a certain amount usually 125 150 of the credit line to cover what you borrow. For a credit line of 20,000 USD for example, a deposit of 25000 30000 USD may be required. This aside, the card operates to all intents and purposes like a normal creditcard, and most carry a major label such as Visa Inc. Visa or MasterCard . Debit cards Another type of card often marketed as a creditcard is an offshore debit card. Offshore debit cards are linked to an offshore bank account, and do not involve any extensions of credit whatsoever. The only money that may be spent is the amount stored in the offshore bank account itself. An offshore Visa debit or MasterCard is accepted worldwide just like a creditcard.

Advert date August 2010 An affinity creditcard program allows an organization to offer its members and supporters those who have an affinity for that organization a creditcard that promotes the organization s brand and imagery each time a cardholder uses the card. An affinity creditcard program may pay the brand owning organization a bonus for each new account generated, plus a percentage of every transaction charged to the card. In some cases the brand owning organization will form a revenue and profit sharing joint venture on a 50 50 basis. The venture is funded by the interchange income from the card scheme such as Mastercards or VISA , fees, charges and credit lent to cardholders. Affinity credit cards are offered by many retailers, shopping centers, airlines, universities , alumni associations , sports teams, professional associations and others, and increasingly by small and mid sized nonprofits and membership based groups that rely on these programs for incremental revenue. The first example was Diners Club in New York, and the concept is now widespread and global. In fact, the explosion in popularity of affinity credit cards helped generate the global expansion on the number and use of credit cards in general. But the affinity creditcard industry is changing. To recapture the costs of offering a group s affinity creditcard, issuers often prefer working with large organizations that allow direct access to members. This provides the issuer with the group s implied endorsement and access to members for the purpose of cross marketing credit cards and other financial products. An affinity group with sufficient number of members say in excess of 5,000 and who can give access to its membership base will find many banks willing to issue the creditcard.

Creditcard kiting refers to the use of one or more creditcard s to obtain cash that one does not have. Unlike check kiting , which is illegal under all circumstances, laws against creditcard kiting are not completely prohibitive of the practice, thereby allowing it to be done to some degree.
