In a few clicks, users can activate offers and start saving immediately—no account IDs necessary. Cardholders will be notified if they make a purchase from a vendor with an eligible deal, making it simple to get the most value out of the card. New vendors are being added continuously, and cardholders can even suggest vendors for the Mercantile team to connect with.
Here’s what one AOA member, Dr. Tim Wilson of Isthmus Eye Care, had to say:
"Thanks to the AOA Business Card, we have streamlined our business credit card utilization. We can now move all of our vendor payments to the AOA Business Card to take full advantage of the benefits provided by the card program, like the generous signup bonus and unlimited cash back rewards."
The AOA Business Card is the only business credit card designed specifically for doctors of optometry. It requires no personal guarantees, no impact on personal credit, and no annual fee. Any business entity owned by an AOA member, regardless of the business’s affiliation with optometry, is eligible for the card. The AOA Business Card provides 2% back on all purchases 1, and as an added bonus, new cardholders will receive up to $972 in AOA fees reimbursed via points when they spend $15,000 or more within the first 4 months after signing up 2. Learn more at about.card.aoa.org.
1 2% back in rewards on all purchases, no cap on rewards. You will not earn rewards on returned, disputed, or fraudulent transactions. We will reverse rewards associated with the return, credit or adjustment.
2The AOA dues of $972 are paid when you spend $15,000 or more in the first 4 months after account creation. Your Card account must not be canceled or in default at the time of fulfillment of any offers. After the 4 months, Rewards points will be credited to your account if you have met the threshold amount. If we in our sole discretion determine that you have engaged in abuse, misuse, or gaming in connection with the welcome offer in any way or that you intend to do so, we may not credit Rewards points, we may freeze Rewards points credited, or we may take away Rewards points from your account. We may also cancel this Card account and other Card accounts you may have with us.
