Google is offering a credit card for select US based online advertisers for flexible spending. According to an article on Reuters, the company claims that the credit card comes with a competitive interest rate, increased credit limits and no yearly fees.

The AdWords Business credit card is aimed particularly at small and medium businesses, which sometimes don’t have the resources to launch a massive ad campaign ahead of a major sale season.

Brent Callinicos, Google's treasurer, told Reuters that the credit card will be offered to a "statistically significant" number of people as Google examines the results of how availability of the card affects customer spending behavior.

"Even though (availability) will skew toward the smaller businesses, obviously we want to cast a wide enough net so we can see what resonates depending on your historical monthly spend," said Callinicos.

The company is in the process of sending out email invitations to a select few customers and will initially offer the credit cards for beta testing before a mass roll-out.
