Affinity FCU Cash Rewards - UPDATE: Approved

Applied for the card last Friday, no updates since then.

 

How long does the application process usually take?

They're notoriously slow at processing applications. Don't be surprised or take it as a bad omen if you don't hear anything until next week, or given the season even until just after New Year's.

Last year, it took three weeks to get processed (I applied early December). Anyway, after approval, the card arrived super fast by Fedex or UPS (within 1-2 days) and I got it right before Christmas Smiley Happy

Actually I just got the approval email. Took two business days to get the card approved, which is definitely faster than I was expecting after reading the comments.

However, I'm still not seeing the account in the online account. I guess maybe it is somehow delayed?

Congrats! Did you wait after getting your membership to apply for the card, and do you have any other data points like number of inquiries and new accounts when you applied?

Congrats on the approval. If memory serves right, the card did not appear until they mailed it out.
