Olivia, the world's largest lesbian lifestyle company, and MBNA America Bank, N.A., announced the signing of a joint marketing agreement under which Olivia will immediately begin offering Olivia Credit Cards to its customers.

"By using their Olivia credit cards on everyday purchases, our customers will earn points redeemable for Olivia dollars, which can be used to buy down the value of Olivia trips, get upgrades, or even purchase entire vacations," explained Amy Errett, CEO of Olivia. "Our card holders have also told us they are proud to use this card and support a lesbian company that stands for social advocacy."

The Olivia card allows members to start earning points immediately towards Olivia vacations, airfare, and cash back, as well as everything MBNA's WorldPoints rewards program has to offer. In addition, Olivia customers will earn 1 point for every $1 in net retail purchases while securing a low introductory APR with no annual fees.

"Olivia is a very strong brand," said Michelle Shepherd, group executive of MBNA. "We look forward to providing Olivia and their customers with the best in financial products and services."
