Revew: The Sony Platinum Visa® Card, issued by Chase, is designed for those with very good credit who are looking for a card with a unique reward program. Through the reward program, cardholders earn one point per dollar spent on general purchases, three points per dollar spent on Sony products from authorized Sony retailers, and five points per dollar spent at SonyStyle.com and Sony Style® stores. Points can be redeemed for Sony CDs, DVDs, games, movie tickets, and electronics. There is no limit to the amount of points that can be earned per year, but earned points expire in five years. Cardholders also receive 1,500 bonus points after their first purchase. The card has a reasonable interest rate for purchases and balance transfers, no annual fee, and a 0% introductory rate that can be applied towards purchases and balance transfers for the first twelve months of membership. However, finance charges applied use the "Two Cycles Average Daily Balance" method, which is a more costly method in applying finance charges for those who occasionally carry a balance as compared to the "Average Daily Balance" method used by most card issuers. The card offers platinum cardholder benefits provided by Chase that include up to travel accident insurance, auto rental insurance, and various travel and emergency assistance services. Therefore, those who plan to spend on Sony products or shop at SonyStyle.com (to earn the maximum amount of reward points) and plan to pay in full each month after the introductory rate expires (to avoid finance charges) will benefit most from what the Sony Platinum Visa® Card has to offer.

Additional Perks: Various Internet account related services. Emergency card replacement. Emergency cash replacement. Lost and stolen card reporting. Auto rental insurance (Auto Rental Collision Damage Waiver). Various travel and emergency assistance services. Extended warranty for purchases. Year-end financial statement (upon request). No liability for unauthorized transactions. Travel accident insurance. Purchase protection. See website for additional benefits. Certain restrictions, limitations, and exclusions apply. If an account is opened, please refer to the Guide to Benefits for details.
