How long will it take to get my Ducks Unlimited Rewards Visa®?

You’ll likely get a decision in less than a minute. Once approved, expect your card to arrive within seven to 10 business days.

The perks

• Cash back.
  Earn unlimited 1.5% cash back on everything you buy.

• Support Ducks Unlimited.
  Help fund wetland conservation with every purchase you make.
• No annual fee.
  All of the cash back you earn with the card is pure reward to your account.

• No penalty APR.
  Late payments will only cost you a fee of up to $39. With other cards you can incur a penalty APR of up to 31%, which may last indefinitely.

What to watch out for

• No intro APR period.
  The card comes with a variable APR of 19.99%, regardless of your credit worthiness. If you want to move your balance from another card or if you want to make a large purchase and carry your balance, consider a 0% intro APR card.

• No signup bonus.
  The Ducks Unlimited Rewards Visa® may have long term value, but it lacks the easy-to-earn reward of a welcome offer.

• Foreign transaction fee.
  You’ll pay a fee of 3% of each transaction made abroad. This may not sound like much, but can quickly add up on a trip spanning several days.

Ducks Unlimited Rewards Visa® reviews and complaints

As of October 2020, the Better Business Bureau rates the card issuer — the First Bankcard, a division of First National Bank of Omaha — with an A. Most complaints for the bank revolve around poor customer support and hidden fees. Some customers claim that their credit line was lowered when they made a single late payment. One customer even claims that their autopay didn’t work, so they were charged late payment fee and interest.

Avoid surprise fees by reading over the terms and conditions of your card. You may also benefit from keeping an eye on your monthly statements, even if you have autopay set up.

Bottom line

The Ducks Unlimited Rewards Visa® is a solid cashback card if you don’t spend much on any particular category of purchases. And what’s cool, a small portion of every purchase you make with the card is donated to help wetlands conservation.

However, you can look for other cashback credit cards if this doesn’t seem like a card for you.

Frequently asked questions.

• Does the card charge extra for wetlands conservation?

  No, a small portion of everything you buy goes for wetlands conservation with no additional cost to you.

• Is there a minimum cashback redemption threshold?

  Yes, you need to redeem a minimum of $25.
