Chelsea Football Club is delighted to announce the new and improved Chelsea FC credit card, in association with MBNA.
The card, available to UK-based fans, has been launched as part of our renewed five-year credit card partnership with MBNA.
As an extra incentive for Chelsea supporters , the card also offers a free replica home shirt for fans who successfully apply for the new credit card and make a £200 financial transaction on their card within 90 days of their account being opened.
Ron Gourlay, Chelsea FC’s Chief Executive, said: “Over the years we have forged a close, successful relationship with MBNA and, together, we have developed a competitive credit card programme for our supporters in the UK.
“We look forward to another five years with MBNA and to continue to provide quality products for our supporters.
“This is a unique opportunity for UK-based fans and helps to support the development of Chelsea FC’s future stars.”
Michael Donald, MBNA’s Business Development and Commercial executive, added: “We are delighted to renew our partnership with Chelsea FC – a strong, successful brand known the world over. Chelsea FC has had a phenomenally successful year and it is the icing on the cake that we are able to renew our partnership following such a special time for the club.
“The announcement today – and the launch of this new offer for fans – is a powerful indication of the strength of our affinity business model, our leadership in the football credit card market in the UK and the trust Chelsea FC and other organisations have with MBNA.”
The Chelsea FC credit card offers 16 months at zero per cent interest on balance transfers* and three months at zero per cent on purchases*.
The card also offers fans club-based rewards, where for every pound spent, supporters receive one point which they can be redeemed against official Chelsea merchandise.
In place since 2002, the Chelsea credit card partnership is one of MBNA’s most successful; with thousands of fans in the UK already holding a credit card bearing the club colours and badge.
