Balance Transfers

What is a balance transfer?

A balance transfer is when you move an existing Credit Card balance onto another Credit Card. If you have a high interest Credit Card balance you’d like to pay off, a balance transfer to another Credit Card with a lower interest rate can help you keep on top of your payments.

Balance transfers are not currently available on new American Express Credit Card applications.

Why choose a balance transfer?

• Help you save on interest
  
  Some Credit Cards offer an introductory interest-free period on balance transfers that can help you save on interest payments.


• Easy to manage
  
  With one consolidated Credit Card balance to manage, you only have to make one monthly payment, so keeping an eye on things is simpler.
