A system and method for combining at least two similarly managed credit accounts into a single ONE card account is described. The system identifies a given cardholder having a plurality of similarly managed credit accounts. Generates a single ONE card account for the given cardholder. Incorporates the plurality of similarly managed credit accounts into the single ONE card account. Manages any future transactions for each of the plurality of similarly managed credit accounts via the single ONE card account. Provides, to the given cardholder, a single ONE card account statement, the single ONE card account statement containing information previously provided separately by each of the plurality of similarly managed credit accounts.
