If you have a credit card with a mega-bank but wish your credit-card purchases benefited communities instead, now is the perfect time to switch to the Green America card.
With the Green America VISAź credit card, offered in partnership with One PacificCoast Bank*, your everyday purchases support green jobs and healthy communities. Even the card itself is green, made of 55 percent recycled plastic.
An FDIC-insured bank, One PacificCoast Bank invests in sustainable community development projects along the West Coast.** What's more, with every charge, One PacificCoast Bank directs a percentage back to Green America, supporting all of our green-economy programs.

If you choose to use credit cards, switching to the Green America credit card is a great way to support community banks (find more banking options at our Break Up With Your Mega-Bank Web site, or in our Community Investing Guide). Remember to manage credit-card use responsibly, paying off balances quickly – month-by-month if possible – to avoid excessive consumer debt.
