Frequently Asked Questions

You're eligible to apply for an ATB Preferred Variable-Rate Mastercard if you meet all the following criteria:

  • are a resident of Alberta
  • are at least 18 years old

  • intend to use the card for personal use only

Yes. You can apply for this card with a co-applicant and use it jointly. Both co-applicants must meet the eligibility requirements.

The interest rate on your ATB Preferred Variable-Rate Mastercard can be as low as ATB Prime +5% for purchases and ATB Prime + 6% for cash advances. The "Variable" part of the rate is the ATB Prime Rate.


For example: if Prime is 2%, it means:
Purchase interest rate will be: 2% + 5% = 7%
Cash advance interest rate will be: 2% + 6% = 8%

Fixed means the interest rate is locked in, so you can confidently manage your budget. Variable interest rates change with ATB's prime rate, giving you access to a lower interest rate whenever the prime rate drops.
