What You Need to Know About WebBank and Petal Credit Cards

Petal is a credit card company owned and managed by WebBank. The bank introduced Petal cards in an effort to help users improve their creditworthiness.

Credit Limit

Petal 2

Credit Limit

Between $300-$5,000Between $300-$10,000

In addition, Petal charges no interest for payments made on time. Once your application is approved, you'll receive an email noting your credit limit and your annual percentage rate(APR).

APR only applies to late payments/balance carried forward. For example, if you spend $2,500 and only pay $1,000 at the time of your billing, the remaining $1,500 will be carried over to the next payment date and will subsequently incur an interest.

To calculate how much interest you owe, multiply your balance by your daily periodic rate and by the number of days in your billing period. Your daily periodic rate is derived by dividing your APR by the number of days in a given year (365).

Petal credit cards are powered by Visa and can be used anywhere where Visa cards are accepted.
