      I have this card.

      I’m an immigrant to the US by way of marriage. When I moved here we opened an account at chase where my now wife banks - a joint for us both and one for me.

      When faced with having three near identical blue cards I asked if there was any option other than blue

      Imagine my face when I heard possibly the most American phrase I’ve ever heard: “You can have the brand colors, or Disney”

          Not “buy”, but sometimes there’s an annual fee to use the card, or other fees besides the interest rate.

            Even outside the US, I pay a one time fee when I have to replace my card (Usually either lost or no longer working). It’s not that bad, only a one time charge of 7,50 automatically withdrawn from my debit account.

      It’s just a debit card with a custom design on it rather than the default chase design.
