Triple points now available on sporting goods, recreation and fitness purchases; double points on recurring everyday items
Bellco today announced a new look and also a new rewards program for its Visa® Platinum Rewards Credit Card to celebrate the active Colorado lifestyle. Featuring outdoor images captured by local Colorado photographers, the new credit card program offers cardholders triple ScoreCard® Bonus Points on sporting goods, recreation, fitness and other purchases. In addition, double-rewards points are available on recurring expenses such as gasoline, as well as cell phone and Internet bills.
"Whether it's hitting the slopes in the winter or biking during the summer, Colorado is home to millions of people who are enthusiastic about the outdoors, and Bellco is committed to helping all of us take full advantage of what makes our state so special," said Deirdra O'Gorman, Vice President of Customer Relationship Management at Bellco. "Bellco's new rewards credit card makes it easier than ever before to save up for that next fitness or lifestyle purchase, no matter how big or small."
Beginning in January 2012, cardholders automatically earn triple or double points from qualified merchants. No additional paperwork is required; extra points are automatically added to each cardholders account without the need to save receipts or log purchases. Online registration is required to review reward accounts and track accumulated points. Click here for more detailed information about participating merchants and available bonus point categories.
