Our verdict

Offers up to 55 interest-free days on purchases and a $0 annual fee in the first year, which goes to $150 after that.

The ANZ Business 55 Interest Free Days credit card is suited to small and medium businesses that want to manage their expenses under one account. This includes the option of cards for employees, with custom spending controls and no additional cardholder annual fee. While it offers up to 55 days interest-free on purchases, keep in mind that the account's full closing balance needs to be paid by the due date on each statement. Otherwise, a 17.74% p.a. purchase rate applies.

Like many business cards, you can also link it with accounting software programs to simplify your cost tracking. The $150 p.a. annual fee for this card is waived in the first year and is relatively low compared to other business credit cards.

Pros

$0 annual fee in the first year
Up to 55 days interest-free on purchases
$0 additional cardholder fee, plus individual card controls
Unauthorised Transaction Insurance

Cons

No introductory interest rate offers
No rewards program

The ANZ Business 55 Interest Free Days Card currently offers a $0 annual fee for the first year, which goes to $150 p.a. after that and is competitive among business credit cards. But cards with higher fees do generally offer more perks, such as rewards or travel benefits. So make sure you weigh up its other features before you apply.

Can I withdrawn from an ATM from my business one credit card? If I can what is the daily limit?

If I pay off my monthly accounts payable statements with this card, Is this considered a cash advance?

Is this included in the interest free days?

Do I earn reward points?

If so, is there a card which allows me to do this, which is not Amex? and earns me FF points.

Thanks

Pemni

Hi Annie,

Thanks for your inquiry,

Withdrawals from a ANZ Business One card are possible as it is a VISA card. The daily limit on withdrawals sums of money up to a limit of AUD $1000 – and more if you make special arrangements with ANZ.

I hope this has helped.

Cheers,

Jonathan

WHY AM I CHANGE INTERST ON PURCHASES

Elizabeth Barry Finder

Hi Phillip,

Thanks for your question.

You’re charged interest on purchases because that is the way this card, and most credit cards work. You can take advantage of up to 55 days interest-free on purchases when you pay your balance back in full each month to help save on interest charges.

I hope this has helped.

Thanks,

Elizabeth
