How to Apply for the Temple University Visa Credit Card

If you want to support your school and stay connected with the community, a great way to accomplish this is to apply for the Temple University Visa Credit Card. You’ll earn rewards while at the same time carrying a part of your university experience with you at all times. This credit card offers a cash back rewards program where you can earn 3% cash back on gas purchases, 2% cash back at grocery stores or wholesale clubs, and 1% cash back everywhere else. The points never expire, so you can redeem them whenever you want. The only limitation is the $2,500 quarterly cap on gas stations (3%) and grocery stores purchases (2%). Once the $2,500 limit is reached, you will earn 1% cash back for the remainder of the quarter. As an added bonus, you will receive $100 cash rewards after making $500 in purchases, as long as it’s made within 90 days of opening the account. Another excellent perk is the 0% introductory APR offered for the first 12 billing cycles. This applies to purchases as well as balance transfers made within 60 days of opening the account. After the introductory period, an APR of 13.24% to 23.24% will apply. Only those with excellent credit will be offered the low APR of 13.24% (APR is subject to change). Even with all the added benefits and a $0 annual fee, the Temple University Visa Credit Card​ will most likely only pique the interest of those whose heart belongs to Temple. To apply for this card, follow the tutorial we have written out below.
