Analysis

Retail Charge Agreement E CA02 R, as filed by Preferred Credit, carries a 21.99% purchase APR. The purchase rate sits at roughly the 49th percentile of the 4,587 agreements indexed here.

What this filing discloses

Preferred Credit filed this agreement for Retail Charge Agreement E CA02 R with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. The filing runs seven pages.

Terms captured from the document include 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.

How the purchase rate compares

21.99% puts the purchase APR near the 49th percentile across 2,280 agreements, so it sits close to the middle of the corpus.

What a balance actually costs

Carry $2,000 on this card for a year without paying it down and the purchase rate alone generates roughly $492 in interest.

That is almost exactly what a median-priced filing in this index would charge on the same balance, since the corpus median sits at 21.99%.

Small balances do not get a proportionally small bill — the agreement imposes a $0.50 minimum interest charge in any month where interest applies.

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.

Grace period and minimum charge

Purchases carry a 25-day grace period: pay the statement in full inside it and the purchase rate never applies.

A minimum interest charge of $0.50 applies in any cycle where interest is due, which makes very small revolving balances disproportionately expensive.

What a missed payment costs

$15 is the disclosed ceiling on a late payment fee, placing it near the 11th percentile of the set.

What the filing does not tell you

This page cannot tell you anything about cash advances, balance transfer terms, an annual fee and a foreign transaction fee, because the filing's disclosure table as read does not contain them.

An agreement filing is not a marketing document. Rewards, perks, welcome offers and eligibility rules are not in it, are not in this dataset, and are therefore not discussed anywhere on this page.

Go to the source

This summary stands or falls on the linked PDF — seven pages. Agreements are amended over time, and the filing reflects the terms as submitted rather than as they stand today.

In short

The pricing here is middling by the standards of the index — 21.99% on purchases is near enough to typical. All of this rests on figures read from the filing with less than full confidence, which is reason enough to check the document before relying on any of it.
