Commerce bank
Charge Card
The Bank of Commerce to
day announced it will enter the
credit card field with the intro
duction of Master Charge.
J. A. Bowers, president, said
his bank will offer the plan as
an affiliate of State Bank and
Trust Company, member of
the Atlantic Bancard Associa
tion.
Master Charge a part of the
Interbank card system, is a
major national credit card with
international connections. The
card may be used for purchases
at some 160,000 participating
establishments in the U. S., Ja
pan, Merico and Europe.
Mr. Bowers said that with
this one card, the cardholder
can obtain immediate credit or
cash and then receive one bill.
“ It greatly simplifies the
customer’s financial report-
keeping,” he said, “and for our
merchants, it eliminates rece-
iveables, collection problems
and the need for their own
credit card department.”
The card will be made avail
able to the public in March of
next year, Mr. Bowers said.
