Important Information About Procedures for Opening a New Account
To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, Federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who opens an account. What this means for you: When you open an account, we will ask for your name, address, date of birth, and other information that will allow us to identify you. We may also ask to see your driver's license or other identifying documents.
Underwriting Standards
State Farm Bank ("Bank") encourages any interested individual(s) to submit an application for any product(s) offered by the Bank. We also encourage you to obtain information regarding the Bank's underwriting standards for each type of credit or service offered by visiting statefarm.com or by contacting the Bank at 1-877-SF4-BANK (1-877-734-2265). To apply for a Bank product, you may also see your participating State Farm agent.
Additional Agreements and Authorizations
By submitting this application, you are applying for a credit card account with State Farm Bank, F.S.B.("State Farm Bank" or "we"). You acknowledge that you have reviewed all the information entered on the application and affirm that it is true and complete. You must be at least 18 years of age and a U.S. citizen or permanent resident alien with a valid permanent home address within the 50 United States or the District of Columbia to be eligible to apply. You authorize State Farm Bank® to obtain one or more consumer credit reports to determine your eligibility for credit, renewal of credit, future extensions of credit or any other legitimate business purpose in connection with your account. We will consider your application for a State Farm Visa credit card. You must have a minimum annual household income of $15,000 to be considered for a State Farm Visa credit card account. We will verify your credit status, income and other information. Based on this, we determine the actual credit line on your account and may issue credit on different terms. State Farm Bank reserves the right not to open any account. If an account is opened, you agree that the use of the account, account number, or any card issued in connection with the account constitutes your acceptance of, and is subject to, the terms and conditions (including binding arbitration) of the State Farm Bank Credit Card Agreement and Disclosure Statement ("Cardholder Agreement") that will be sent with your card(s). You also acknowledge that your participation in the State Farm Dollars® Rewards Program will be governed by the Program Terms and Conditions, a copy of which will be sent with your card(s). State Farm Bank, in its sole discretion, may allocate your payments to balances with lower APRs (including introductory offers and new transactions) before balances with higher APRs. You agree to be responsible for all charges incurred on the account according to the Cardholder Agreement. For joint credit card accounts, you are responsible, both together and individually, for the entire outstanding balance on the account. You also agree that the Cardholder Agreement and your account are governed by Federal law and by the laws of the State of Illinois to the extent that Federal law is not controlling, and that the Cardholder Agreement is subject to change (including, but not limited to, an increase in rates and fees). The terms described in this application supersede those in all previous applications.
Balance Transfer Terms and Conditions
You agree to allow approximately 30 days to process your Balance Transfer request, pay the amount, and transfer the balance to your State Farm Visa credit card account. Interest may begin to accrue on the transferred balance as of the date the balance is transferred to your State Farm Visa credit card. Until you confirm that a Balance Transfer has been completed, you should continue to make all required payments on the other account(s). State Farm Bank is not responsible for any fees or finance charges incurred on an account prior to its transfer, nor for any remaining balance or additional charges in the event the payment amount you authorized does not satisfy an outstanding balance. We will not close your other accounts. In the event you wish to close another account after transferring the entire outstanding balance to your State Farm Bank credit card account, you must still contact the other issuer or creditor directly. The minimum individual transfer request that will be honored is $50 and the total amount(s) paid and transferred under this offer is limited to 94% of your total credit line in order to leave part of your line available for Purchases. If you submit concurrent Balance Transfer requests that exceed this transfer limit, we will process your requests from highest to lowest dollar amount, may decline to process one or more requests and will not complete a request by making a partial payment. Your credit card account must be in good standing and State Farm Bank reserves the right to refuse any Balance Transfer request. Balance Transfer requests may not be used to pay any existing balances on any State Farm Bank credit card account, nor can they be processed if made payable to you, an individual, a deposit account, or cash. If you make purchases at any time during a statement cycle in which you have an outstanding Balance Transfer, you must pay the entire New Balance (including the Balance Transfer balance) shown on your account statement by the Payment Due Date in order to avoid accruing Finance Charges on those purchases. State Farm Bank, in its sole discretion, may allocate your payments to balances with lower APRs (including promotional offers and new transactions) before balances with higher APRs.
