Analysis

Celtic Bank's filed agreement for Indigo Mastercard Cardholder Agreement 649 discloses a 35.9% purchase APR. Against the 4,587 filings on this site, that rate lands around the 91st percentile.

What the document actually states

The document behind this page is Celtic Bank's filed agreement for Indigo Mastercard Cardholder Agreement 649. The filing runs 13 pages, and It is issued on the Mastercard network.

The disclosure covers a purchase rate, a late payment maximum, a foreign transaction fee and a grace period. A cash advance rate, a balance transfer rate and a penalty rate are not stated.

The purchase APR against the corpus

35.9% puts the purchase APR near the 91st percentile across 2,280 agreements, so it lands high in the distribution.

Translating the rate into money

At the disclosed purchase APR, $3,000 revolving for a full year costs something like $1,295 in interest.

A card priced at the corpus median of 21.99% would charge roughly $738 on that balance. This one charges about $557 more per year.

Per statement cycle that is on the order of $89.79 on $3,000, which is the number that actually shows up on a bill.

These figures are arithmetic on the disclosed rate, not a quote: they assume the balance is never reduced, ignore any payments, and take no account of fees charged separately.

The fee structure

Foreign transactions attract 1%. On $1,500 of overseas spending that is $15, charged on top of whatever exchange rate applies.

When a payment is late

Late payments are capped at $41 under this filing, about the 89th percentile of late fee maximums in the corpus.

The grace period

25 days is the disclosed grace period for purchases — the interval in which paying in full costs nothing. That matches the 25-day median across the corpus almost exactly.

Where interest applies at all, the filing bills at least $1. On a tiny balance that floor can dwarf the rate itself.

Against the rest of Celtic Bank's filings

92 separate Celtic Bank filings appear in the corpus. Across that lineup purchase rates span 22.49% to 35.9%; this filing's 35.9% sits above 25 of the comparable ones.

What the filing does not tell you

Absent from the captured terms: anything about cash advances, balance transfer terms, an annual fee and penalty pricing. The original document is the place to look for any of these.

More broadly, a CFPB agreement filing is a legal and pricing document. It does not describe rewards, benefits, sign-up offers, eligibility or approval criteria, and nothing of that kind has been inferred on this page. Where a card has features of that sort, they live outside this document entirely.

Where the authority sits

Everything here is a reading of the filed agreement, 13 pages of it, which is linked above and which governs. Terms also change between filings, so the date on the document matters.

In short

35.9% on purchases is the number that dominates this agreement. Paid in full each cycle it never applies; carried, it is among the dearer prices in this index.

The source document

This page is a reading of one document: the cardholder agreement Celtic Bank filed with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. Where the two disagree, the filing is correct and this page is wrong.
