Although this was part of the 0% APR Offers list I thought I'd feature this card as it stands out from the rest of the pack in a special way. Advanta offers the new Kiva Business MasterCardto businesses and individuals that are looking to help make change in the world.
Along with the very generous 15-month 0% APR rate on all balance transfers, every purchase you make with your Kiva card entitles you to 1% cash back reward. Although that is very vanilla, the real difference with this card is that they give you 5% back on all of your charitable contributions via the card (up to $1,200/year) and will match your contributions, dollar-for-dollar to the Kiva micro-loan program (up to $200/month in matching funds).
If you haven"t heard the buzz about micro-loans lately, they are small amounts of money doled out to poor people trying to start their own businesses in third-world countries. These loans are made at favorable rates and payback-terms and allow the individual a chance to improve the lives of themselves and their families.
If you are already giving back in some way why not use this card as a way to increase your donation ability? Apply for the Kiva Business MasterCard here. UPDATE: Apply for the Kiva Business Professional's Card if you are a non-business owning professional.
UPDATE 2: Advanta has canceled this, along with most of it's other cards because of the recent credit crunch.
