Variable Rates. Purchase, Cash Advance and Balance Transfer APRs are based on the Prime Rate (index) to which we add a margin based on your creditworthiness. For Visa accounts, the applicable margins range from 2.99% to 12.99%. The rate for the Visa® Prime Lock is variable and adjusts with the Prime Rate. No margins are added to the Prime Rate for the Visa® Prime Lock.
