How to Apply for the First American Bank Visa Bonus/Bonus Plus Credit Card

The First American Bank Visa Signature Bonus and Bonus Plus Credit Card are naturally very similar. What separates them is an annual fee and an improved rewards program in the Plus option. The bonus they speak of in both cases is credited to the fact that they will add another 25% or 50% to your accumulated points each month (1.25x or 1.5x respectively) which can be pretty beneficial if you actually use your points card enough. The APR is flexible so we can’t really recommend this card unless your credit score is high enough to make it worth your while. If this option entices you at all, scroll down and we’ll walk you through the application process. It should be very straight forward.
