3% Credit Card Rebate Program

As of February 1, 2006, most of the BoatUS stores and the catalog will have changed their name to “West Marine” from “BoatUS” Therefore, as in the past, Bank of America cannot honor any rebates (3%) for purchases via West Marine store locations, on-line store or catalog purchases.  Bank of America will only honor purchases from the 1 remaining store ( Sarasota FL) with the BoatUS name on it.

Please note that the Member Rewards program benefits (4% back) still apply for all BoatUS Members and you are still eligible for a 3% Rebate on your existing BoatUS 3% Rebate credit card when purchasing via the BoatUS online store www.boatus.com, BoatUS services, including any BoatUS Membership Program, such as Membership dues, annual towing fees, and even purchases at Cooperating Marinas (800+).


Just think of the continued savings! Use your BoatUS 3% Rebate credit card to buy gas at any of our 800 BoatUS Cooperating Marinas that offer fuel discounts, and not only do you get 10 cents off per gallon, but you get a 3% credit rebate on top of that. Pay for dinner at the marina's restaurant with your credit card, and you can get a 3% credit rebate on that too!

Special Update: The BoatUS credit card product line added another product to our fleet, the

BoatUS Platinum Plus™ Visa ® credit card.  The new BoatUS WorldPoints card enhancement offers an easy means for boating enthusiasts to earn "bonus" points for participating in an activity you love- boating!  Double points ("bonus" points) are available for Marine, Marine Service and Supplies (MCC#4468) and Boat Rentals and leases (MCC#4457) with thousands of transaction locations.  Click here to apply or call 800-847-7378 and mention Priority Code LW36 for more information.

Remember, the BoatUS 3% credit card rebates and the BoatUS WorldPoints Platinum Plus
credit card benefits (1 point/$1.00 of net retail purchases) are in addition to our Member Rewards program. So, if you pay for any BoatUS services, including any BoatUS Membership Programs or even purchases at Cooperating Marinas, with your BoatUS credit card, you may get a 3% credit rebate or 1 point for every retail dollar spent anywhere Visa credit cards are accepted, depending on the BoatUS credit card used. Click here for an example of the potential savings.

3% Rebate Process:

The 3% Rebate redemption process couldn't be simpler. Just circle your BoatUS purchases on your monthly Bank of America credit card statement and mail a copy of the statement to:

BoatUS Rebate
Bank of America

Hunt Valley, MD 21031

Or fax it to:
Bank of America BoatUS Rebate Program

The rebate will appear on your next monthly billing statement.
The 3% credit rebate applies only to personal boating purchases, not commercial purchases. Each BoatUS credit cardholder is limited to $1,200 in rebates per calendar year. Any request for a rebate must be postmarked, or received via facsimile at 410-229-6347, no later than twelve (12) months from the Closing Date appearing on the submitted Statement. Full terms and conditions of the program are available upon request and are supplied to each new cardholder. The terms of the program are subject to change and are void where prohibited by law.

This credit rebate program is funded by Bank of America, not your Member dues.
