Analysis
The Pricing Addendum VT06 W filing from Preferred Credit sets out a 17.99% purchase APR. Against the 4,587 filings on this site, that rate lands around the 28th percentile.
What the document actually states
Preferred Credit filed this agreement for Pricing Addendum VT06 W with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. The filing runs one page.
The filing is explicit about a purchase rate, a late payment maximum and a grace period. No figure appears for a cash advance rate, a balance transfer rate and a penalty rate.
These figures carry medium extraction confidence — they are reproduced as read from the filing, which remains the authority.
The purchase APR against the corpus
The purchase APR of 17.99% places this agreement around the 28th percentile of the set — it is on the cheaper side of the median.
The arithmetic of revolving
The purchase rate turns a $2,000 revolving balance into roughly $394 of annual interest.
Priced at the median of 21.99%, that balance would generate about $492 in a year — so this agreement comes in around $98 cheaper for the same debt.
Note the $0.50 minimum interest charge, which overrides the arithmetic above whenever the calculated interest falls below it.
Treat this as an illustration of what the disclosed rate does, not as a projection of a real account, which would be shaped by payments and by the fees described elsewhere in the filing.
The downside terms
Late payments are capped at $0 under this filing, about the 2nd percentile of late fee maximums in the corpus.
The no-interest path
Anyone clearing the statement balance inside 25 days pays no purchase interest at all under this filing.
A minimum interest charge of $0.50 applies in any cycle where interest is due, which makes very small revolving balances disproportionately expensive.
How it sits in the issuer's own range
This is one of 124 Preferred Credit agreements collected here. Across that lineup purchase rates span 17.99% to 21.99%; this filing's 17.99% sits above 0 of the comparable ones.
What the filing does not tell you
The disclosure parsed here does not state anything about cash advances, balance transfer terms, an annual fee and a foreign transaction fee. Those gaps are gaps in what could be read from the filing, and the PDF may well address them in prose the rate table does not capture.
More broadly, a CFPB agreement filing is a legal and pricing document. It does not describe rewards, benefits, sign-up offers, eligibility or approval criteria, and nothing of that kind has been inferred on this page. Where a card has features of that sort, they live outside this document entirely.
Where the authority sits
The original filing, 1 page long, is linked on this page and should be read before any figure here is acted on. It is also a snapshot: issuers refile as terms change.
In short
The pricing here is middling by the standards of the index — 17.99% on purchases is near enough to typical. Given the parsing confidence on this filing, read the agreement itself before treating any of these figures as settled.
The source document
This page is a reading of one document: the cardholder agreement Preferred Credit filed with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. Where the two disagree, the filing is correct and this page is wrong.
