Analysis
DUNS #07 714 5902 Vantage MC Revision 103123, as filed by Vantage Credit Union, carries a purchase APR of 15.49%–22.49% and a 33.24% penalty rate. Against the 4,587 filings on this site, that rate lands around the 51st percentile.
The disclosed terms
Vantage Credit Union filed this agreement for DUNS #07 714 5902 Vantage MC Revision 103123 with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. The filing runs six pages, and It is issued on the Mastercard network.
The disclosure covers a purchase rate, a penalty rate, a late payment maximum and a foreign transaction fee. It is silent on a cash advance rate, a balance transfer rate and an annual fee line.
The purchase APR against the corpus
Rather than a single purchase rate, the document gives a band — 15.49% at the bottom, 22.49% at the top, 7 points wide. The agreement discloses the range without disclosing how an account is placed within it.
Those two numbers occupy very different places in the corpus: roughly the 36th percentile at the bottom and the 51st at the top.
The filing marks this rate as variable, which means it moves with the index the agreement names rather than staying where it is quoted today.
The arithmetic of revolving
Carry $3,000 on this card for a year without paying it down and the purchase rate alone generates roughly $756 in interest.
The median purchase rate across the corpus is 21.99%; the same balance there would cost about $738. The gap — roughly $19 a year on $3,000 — is the price of this particular filing over a typical one.
Treat this as an illustration of what the disclosed rate does, not as a projection of a real account, which would be shaped by payments and by the fees described elsewhere in the filing.
What the card costs before you borrow
The filing sets a 1% foreign transaction fee, which adds roughly $15 to $1,500 spent outside the United States.
Default pricing
If the account defaults, the filing permits a rate of 33.24%. Among disclosing agreements here that ranks near the 69th percentile.
The jump from 22.49% to 33.24% is 10.75 percentage points, worth roughly $426 extra per year on $3,000 of balance.
On the fee side, a late payment can cost up to $25, which is around the 32nd percentile here.
Inside Vantage Credit Union's filed lineup

What you cannot learn from the filing
The disclosure parsed here does not state anything about cash advances, balance transfer terms, an annual fee and a grace period. Those gaps are gaps in what could be read from the filing, and the PDF may well address them in prose the rate table does not capture.
What this analysis can address is bounded by the filing: rates, fees and the terms around them. Everything a card issuer might advertise — rewards, benefits, bonuses, who qualifies — falls outside the document and outside this review.
