Issuer Rules

Rules: The Catherines Credit Card for 2026 is expected to offer a welcome bonus, such as 20% off the first purchase made on the card, along with ongoing rewards (e.g., 2 points per $1 spent at Catherines stores and online). Special financing offers (e.g., 0% APR for 6-12 months on qualifying purchases over a certain amount) may also be available. Eligibility requirements include being 18 years or older, a U.S. resident with a valid Social Security Number (SSN) or Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN), and subject to credit approval (typically requiring a fair to good credit score, generally FICO 620+). Applicants cannot hold an existing Catherines Credit Card account at the time of application.

Maximum Cards Per Issuer: 1

Minimum Spend Interval: N/A - Welcome bonus (e.g., first purchase discount) applies immediately. Ongoing rewards are earned per transaction. Special financing terms vary by offer.

Shutdown Risk Triggers: Missed or late payments, high credit utilization across all BreadFinance accounts, suspected fraudulent activity or account abuse (e.g., excessive returns tied to purchases), bankruptcy filing, or opening too many BreadFinance accounts in a short period (though more common for denial of new applications than shutdown of existing ones).
