The United States Fencing Association (USFA) and U.S. Bank have partnered to create a saber-raising opportunity for fencing enthusiasts with the United States Fencing Association Visa card from U.S. Bank. The card generates support for fencing each time a new card is activated and repeatedly thereafter each time the card is used.

"The beauty of this program is that just by using the card, fans and athletes will help support and develop the sport of fencing. We've also created a great-looking card that fencers will be proud to carry," said Michael Massik, executive director of the USFA. "Simply put, your support helps make fencing dreams come true."

The USFA card depicts two fencers in action, and features no annual fee, a low introductory rate (APR) and a choice of exciting rewards including cash back or points redeemable for merchandise, travel, gift certificates or virtually any reward with the Choose Your Own Reward option.

"We're proud to support the passion and dreams of fencers everywhere and the mission of the USFA through this new affinity relationship," said Tanya Turner, senior vice president of affinity products at U.S. Bank. "We look forward to building and continuing a great relationship with USFA and its fans nationwide."

They did this a few years back with a card from MBNA - I should know, I have one in my wallet!

No word ever if the USFA ever got anything back from it.

Assuming the rewards are generally comperable with other cards, I'm interested.

I felt like I should be all supportive of the USFA and get one, however, I despise credit cards. Generally I believe they are very insecure. Given about two minutes alone with a card I can memorize the number and if I can do it so can other people. It just makes me doubt them a lot. Combine all that with my general ineptitude in regards to fiscal responsibility, CCs are just a bad idea (for me at least).
