Frequently Asked Questions
Capital One Card Lab Connect is a credit card program through which you support a non-profit organization through your everyday purchases. When you make purchases with a participating organization's card, that organization receives donations for all of your purchases. Carrying the card also helps to spread awareness about the organization's cause and allows you to show your support.
The card is issued by Capital One, N.A., and Capital One will service the account. This means you will have access to phone support, online account management, and all the other services Capital One provides its cardholders. The organization you support is a participant in the Capital One Card Lab Connect program.
