PNC, Pittsburgh Pirates relaunch MasterCard.

PNC Bank and the Pittsburgh Pirates baseball team have reintroduced the Pirates Master-Card.

Front Row USA, an in-stadium marketer, is marketing the card to Pirate fans. Front Row said that when the card was relaunched during the May 20 to 21 home series, thousands of Pirate rans applied for the affinity card and a free Pittsburgh Pirates all-star baseball.

The new PNC Bank Pirates MasterCard offers an 11.24% introductory rate through Dec. 31, 1994, with no annual fee. In 1995, the pricing will be based on prime plus 7.9% for purchases. The annual fee will be $18.
