THE METROBANK SECURED CARD

A. PRODUCT FEATURES

The Metrobank Secured Visa/MasterCard is an international card that enables you to settle all
local and foreign purchases in Philippine Currency. Its deposit hold-out requirement enables you
to do away with credit investigation procedures. Application requirements include a deposit hold-
out account maintained at any Metrobank Branch, and an accomplished Secured Metrobank
credit card application form.

The deposit hold-out account serves as a guarantee for the purchases made using the Secured
credit card. The account on hold-out could be a Peso or US Dollar savings/current account. The
amount on hold-out will be equivalent to your credit limit unless your deposit hold-out account is a
Dollar account. For Dollar accounts, only 90% of the designated amount on hold-out will be
available as your credit limit. Ten percent of the US Dollar hold-out amount will be reserved as
buffer for foreign exchange fluctuations. The minimum amount required for hold-out is P10,000
or its US Dollar equivalent.

B. APPLICATION REQUIREMENTS

Should you be interested in applying for a Secured credit card, please accomplish a Secured
credit card application form. The forms are available at any Metrobank Branch. Although the
Metrobank web site has an on-line application facility, may we advise you to proceed to the
nearest Metrobank Branch to secure a copy of the form. Please provide all the details required in
the application form, and affix your signature in the space provided. Should you wish to
designate an extension cardholder, please indicate this in the My Extension portion of the form.
The extension cardholder must also affix his/her signature in the space provided. Also
incorporated in the form is a Deed of Assignment through which you will designate the deposit
account for hold-out and the amount on hold-out. This should be signed in the presence of a
branch officer.

If you do not have an existing account with a Metrobank Branch, your branch visit will give you
the opportunity to complete your application requirements. Please provide all the information
required in the application form. Please specify your payment and delivery instructions. Should
you wish to avail of an Automatic Debit Arrangement (ADA), please indicate this in the ADA
portion of the form. The account to be debited could be separate from the one on hold-out, or the
same as the one on hold-out. However if the debit account is the same as the hold-out account,
then it should have sufficient funds to cover both debit amounts and the hold-out requirement.
Your application will be processed upon receipt of the original application form. The period
normally takes a week, while the delivery of the new card will take another week.
