Navy Federal Credit Union today announced its new credit card in partnership with American Express^® AXP. The Navy Federal More Rewards American Express^® Card is available for its more than seven million members worldwide. The credit union launched the new card with a rewards structure of 3x points at supermarkets and gas stations, 2x points at restaurants and 1 point on everything else.

Additional features include:

• no annual fees¹
• no foreign transaction fees¹
• no balance transfer fees¹
• no limit on rewards earned, and rewards never expire

"The More Rewards Card allows members to earn real value by shopping at everyday places like supermarkets and gas stations," said Matt Freeman, head of credit card products at Navy Federal Credit Union. "You have to buy groceries, you're going to get gas and go out to eat—now you can also benefit from earning additional points when you do."

Starting today, Navy Federal members can apply online, call the 24/7 contact center or visit any of its 305 branch locations. The Card is serviced by Navy Federal and accepted on the American Express global merchant network.

"The timing for this launch was important," Freeman explained. "We're ensuring our members have the opportunity to get the rich rewards this Card offers during the holiday shopping season."

Navy Federal has ranked the highest for credit unions in customer service polls, including Forrester's US Customer Experience Index and the American Customer Satisfaction Index (ASCI). Freeman said members would get that exact same service with this Card and all their cards.
