Issuer Rules

Rules: Eligibility requirements for the The Children's Place Credit Card (issued by BreadFinance) for 2026 typically include: applicants must be 18 years or older, a U.S. resident with a valid Social Security Number (SSN) or Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN), and meet BreadFinance's creditworthiness criteria. The primary bonus rule is generally an initial discount (e.g., 20-30% off) on the first purchase made with the card. Ongoing rewards usually involve earning points (e.g., 5 points per $1) on all purchases at The Children's Place and its associated brands (e.g., Gymboree, Sugar & Jade), which are redeemable for reward certificates. Cardholders may also receive birthday offers and exclusive cardholder discounts.

Maximum Cards Per Issuer: 7

Minimum Spend Interval: N/A (Initial discount applies immediately upon first purchase; ongoing rewards accrue per transaction without a specific minimum spend interval for bonus qualification.)

Shutdown Risk Triggers: Missed payments, high credit utilization, suspected fraudulent activity, significant changes in credit profile (e.g., bankruptcy), excessive returns, or attempts to abuse promotional offers (e.g., repeated large returns after earning rewards). While less common for store cards, manufactured spending or credit cycling could also be triggers.
