How to Apply for the Amalgamated Bank of Chicago Union Bank Card

If you are a union member who is looking to acquire a new credit card, look no further than the Union Bank Card. This card has been made available by the Amalgamated Bank of Chicago (ABOC) as part of a series of credit options offered exclusively to union members. Being approved for this card means that you will be receiving some of the lowest interest rates available on the market today. For purchases and balance transfers, your APR will be 9.5% (APR is subject to change). ABOC has provided even more incentive to apply by giving cardholders an introductory 0% APR on all purchases for the first 12 billing cycles. Unlike most low APR cards, the Union Bank Card comes with a rewards program which enables users to earn 1 point for every $1 spent using the card. When enough points have been earned, they can be cashed in and put towards reduced airfare, cruises, on merchandise, and even gift cards. If the low interest rates and rewards program have caught your interest, you can learn how to apply by scrolling down to our tutorial below.

Before submitting any sensitive information into ABOC’s online portal, take a moment to review their privacy policy.
