Mint Credit Cards

The MINT credit card is another newcomer, launched in 2003 when it emerged as the new brand name for the Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS) Group Advanta card.

As well as its classic card, MINT offers an ‘mc2’ product, recognisable for its unique, curved corner design. Gold and platinum credit cards are also available as upgrades.

MINT also issues personal loans of £1,000 to £25,000, as well as home and motor insurance and gift cards.
