Expert review

The Coles No Annual Fee Mastercard is one of few credit cards that offers both rewards and no annual fee. With this card, you earn the equivalent of 0.5 Flybuys points per $1 spent on eligible purchases made anywhere the card is accepted. This gives you a way to earn points when you shop with brands that aren’t already Flybuys partners – although it’s worth noting that some other reward cards offer higher earn rates.

This card also gives you $100 off a shop at Coles when you meet the spend requirement. If you’re paying off a different credit card right now, the 0% interest rate on balance transfers gives you a way to save for the first 6 months if you move the balance over to the Coles No Annual Fee Mastercard. Keep in mind that this is a short balance transfer offer and you will not get interest-free days on purchases while you’re paying off a balance transfer.
