Type of credit card from Beyond Bank

While Beyond Bank does not offer any premium credit cards, it does offer a low rate card coming with its fair share of features. Details of your card options are as follow:

• Low rate credit cards

A low rate credit card gives you the benefits of credit card spending power without the high interest strings that come attached to many other cards. Beyond Bank's Low Rate Visa Credit Card, like other low rate cards, offers a highly competitive interest rate. Owing to its Visa affiliation you can use this card just about anywhere in the world, and it also comes with other Visa benefits. This card comes with a 0% p.a. balance transfer offer, and offers interest-free days on purchases. If you have this card you can apply for up to 4 additional cards, with none of these attracting additional fees.

The benefits of banking with Beyond Bank

Beyond Bank credit cardholders stand to benefit from a host of features and services offered by Beyond Bank. Here are some of the benefits you can expect:

• Balance transfers

If you apply for the Low Rate Visa Credit Card you can use it to transfer balances from existing cards and pay 0% p.a. for the first 12 months. To take advantage of this offer you should apply for the transfer within one month of receiving your card.

• Generous number of interest-free days on purchases

Both Beyond Bank credit cards offer up to 62 interest-free days on retail purchases. This is quite a long period compared to other cards that may only offer up to 44 or 55 days interest-free. Keep in mind you'll need to pay your balance back in full each statement period in order to take advantage of these interest-free days.

• Mobile wallets

Link your Beyond Bank credit card with Apple Pay, Samsung Pay or Google Pay and use your eligible device to tap and pay wherever contactless payments are accepted.

• Simplified banking

Beyond Bank gives you different ways to keep track of your credit card account. You can login to the Beyond Bank website by using your computer, you can download the Beyond Bank app to use on your smartphone, or you can use its round-the-clock telephone banking service.

• Secure spending

The Visa Zero Liability Policy is in place to protect your card information at all times, meaning you won't not liable for unauthorised purchases made using your card or card information. Verified by Visa offers another layer of protection by ensuring that it’s you who is making the purchase, and Smart Chip Protection minimises the risk of card skimming, counterfeiting, and other fraudulent activity.

• AutoPay

Through this facility you can set up automatic repayments and pay a set amount each month. This can be your entire balance or minimum monthly payment. This way, you don’t have to worry about keeping track of your card’s due date.
