How to Apply for the Affinity Credit Union Gold MasterCard

The Affinity Credit Union and CUETS, a subsidiary of the Toronto Dominion Bank, have partnered together to offer the Affinity Credit Union Gold MasterCard. This card is a perfect credit option for those individuals that require the security and additional features that come with the upgraded Gold MasterCard but do not want to pay extra in order to earn reward points they will never spend. That is indeed one of the main differences between this card and the Choice Rewards MasterCards offered by Affinity; a lower annual fee in exchange for a point based rewards program. If you have looked at other cards on the market and have decided that the Affinity Credit Union Gold MasterCard is the right choice for you, scroll down to our tutorial below where you can find a walkthrough of the application process.
