OMAHA, Neb.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--First Bankcard, a division of First National Bank of Omaha and a leading issuer of credit cards, has announced the release of three new credit card benefits designed to support the business needs of today’s small business and middle market business customers. The new benefits, which include Cell Phone Protection, MasterCard® Easy Savings® and MasterCard® Business Lounge Powered by Regus, were introduced to more than 200 of First Bankcard’s co-brand and financial institution business card partners on October 1.
“We’re excited to introduce these three new card benefits to the small business and middle market business audience,” said Mark Chronister, Senior Vice President, Consumer Product Group. “We continually strive to help business owners succeed.
