The Starbucks Card Platinum Duetto™ Visa® Card,
issued by Chase, is designed for those with very good credit who are looking for
a card with a unique reward program.
The Starbucks credit card is a Visa® card and a Starbucks card combined into
one. The Duetto™ Card allows cardholders to charge purchases using the Visa®
account, and it can also be used as a reloadable Starbucks Card at participating
Starbucks locations.
Through the rebate program, cardholders earn a 1% cash rebate on all general
purchases made with the card and a 3% rebate in Duetto™ Dollars when the
cardholder subscribes to automatic reloads of the Starbucks Card account using
the Duetto™ Visa® account. Rebates do not expire, and there is no limit to the
amount of rebates that can be earned. It is also important to note that each
time the cardholder spends $100 in net purchases, one Duetto™ Dollar will be
earned that can be used for purchases made at Starbucks or for a variety of
other rewards. See www.starbucks.com for full details.
The card has no annual fee, and higher qualifying applicants will receive a
reasonable interest rate for purchases and balance transfers. There is also a 0%
introductory rate on purchases and balance transfers for the first six billing
cycles.
Aside from the rebate program, $10 Duetto™ Dollars are awarded to the Starbucks
Card account the first
time the card is used. Cardholders can also expect access to a variety of
platinum benefits that include travel accident insurance, auto rental insurance,
and extended warranties on purchases.
Therefore, those who qualify for the lowest rate offered and plan to take
advantage of the various benefits that the card offers will find the Starbucks
Card Platinum Duetto™ Visa® Card to be a suitable option.
