The Coles No Annual Fee Mastercard was highly commended for Best No Annual Fee Rewards Credit Card in the 2026 Finder Awards.
Full list of 2026 winnersEach Coles Mastercard credit card has different features, but these are the ones you'll get with any of them:
Coles credit cards have your Flybuys membership details printed on the back of them, so you only have to pull out one card at the check out. The Coles Low Rate Mastercard also offers points per $1 spent on eligible purchases at Coles Supermarkets, and both the Coles Rewards and Coles No Annual Fee cards also earn points for eligible purchases you make anywhere (even if it's not a Flybuys partner).
If you want to use rewards to save on your supermarket shopping, you can redeem a minimum of 2,000 Flybuys points for $10 off at participating Coles Supermarkets. Known as Flybuys Dollars, you can also use this reward to get money off shopping at other partners including Kmart, Target and Reddy Express (formerly Coles Express).
You can make payments from your smartphone or eligible device with any of these mobile wallets:
This app gives you a way to keep track of your spending, put a temporary lock on your card, make BPAY payments, check your Flybuys balance and manage other account details. If you prefer to use a web browser, you can also manage your account through the Coles Online Service Centre. The Coles Credit Cards app has replaced the old Coles Mobile Wallet, and you now log in by connecting your credit card to a Coles account. Flybuys points earned on your card no longer appear on your statement, but you can track them in the rewards summary in the app or Online Service Centre.
Coles credit cards offer three types of instalment plans, which give you a way to pay off your credit card balance over a set period of time, with fixed monthly repayments that can make it easier to budget. The options available depend on the type of spending or balance and are subject to eligibility.
| Plan | Description |
|---|---|
| Statement instalments | Convert retail purchases from your closing balance into a structured payment plan, with a minimum of $500 and monthly instalment repayments. |
| Transaction instalments | Convert new shopping to a payment plan before it shows up on your statement. You can do this with any eligible purchase over $50. |
| Cash instalments | Access a minimum of $500 and up to 90% of your available credit limit as cash for bills, study or anything else you need and pay it off in instalments. This option is similar to a small personal loan, but make sure you check the rates and fees so you know how much it will cost before you get it. |
You can check if you're eligible for an instalment plan by calling Coles Mastercard on 1300 066 985. Once a plan is set up, you'll see details on your credit card statement. Learn more about using instalment plans on a credit card to see if they'll work for you.
These cards offer 24/7 account security through Coles Shield and Mastercard Zero Liability for fraudulent transactions.
Applying for a credit card online is fast and easy. You'll need to be at least 18 years of age and meet the card's eligibility criteria. For more about eligibility, the kinds of documentation you'll need and the factors that can affect whether your card application is approved, check out our full guide to applying for a credit card.
If you want a rewards card or brand-related perks, here are 3 other credit card providers you could compare with Coles:
Coles credit cards are issued by NAB, after it acquired Citi's consumer banking business on 1 June 2022. But the card branding and your day-to-day account management is typically through Coles.
People with Coles credit card accounts that were opened before 2018 may have had their details compromised by the 2023 Latitude cyber attack. This is because Latitude Financial was the former issuer of Coles credit cards. Latitude Financial has said it is in the process of contacting people affected by the cyber attack and is posting updates on the Latitude website.
Your Coles credit card account would not be affected by the Latitude cyber attack if you opened it in 2018 or later, after Citigroup (and now NAB) became the issuer of Coles credit cards.
You can call the Coles customer support team on 1300 306 397 or use the live chat service when you have logged in to your online account. The Coles website also has an online, email contact form.
If you want to contact Coles specifically about financial hardship, call 1800 931 356 or email hardship@secure.coles.com.au.
You can activate your Coles credit card through the Coles Credit Cards app or Coles Online Service Centre by logging in and following the prompts. Or, call 1300 306 397.
You can make a payment to your Coles Mastercard using the details on your statement. The different options include:
You can make payments at any time, but will always need to pay at least the minimum amount listed on your statement by the due date. The minimum repayment is usually the greater of $25 or 2% of the balance. Otherwise, a late payment fee will apply.
If you want to increase or lower your credit limit, call the Coles Mastercard customer service team on 1300 306 397.
Keep in mind that your credit limit is based on how much you can afford to repay, so if you accepted the maximum credit limit when you applied for a Coles Mastercard and your circumstances have not changed, you may not be eligible for a credit limit increase.
You can close your Coles Mastercard account by logging in to the Online Service Centre and going to the "Manage My Card" section. Or, call the Coles customer service team on 1300 306 397. Just make sure you don’t owe any money on your card.
Coles only offers Mastercard credit cards. But both Mastercard and Visa cards offer worldwide acceptance and similar ways to pay.
Yes, you can use a Coles credit card to pay for shopping at Woolworths or anywhere else that accepts Mastercard payments. With the Coles Rewards Mastercard and Coles No Annual Fee Mastercard, you'll even earn Flybuys points per $1 on eligible spending.

We make money through commercial arrangements with some of the providers on this site. Products marked 'Sponsored', 'Promoted', 'Featured' or 'Advertisement' appear as a result of a commercial arrangement.
Our editorial content, product reviews and any 'Top Pick' designations are prepared independently of these commercial arrangements.

Finder is one of Australia's leading comparison websites. We are committed to our readers and stand by our editorial principles.
Our comparison service does not include every product or every provider in the market. Some product issuers offer their products under multiple brands or through associated companies. Where we can, we identify the underlying issuer so you can compare like with like, but you should always check with the provider directly to confirm which brand you are dealing with.
Finder is a comparison website and an intermediary. We are not a product issuer and we do not provide personal financial or credit advice. When you click a link to a product, or apply for a product through our site, you deal directly with the product issuer. We may receive a referral fee, commission or other payment from the issuer if you click through, apply or take out a product. We describe these arrangements in more detail under 'How we make money' below.
Product features, fees, terms and eligibility criteria are set by the product issuer and may change. We rely on information supplied by issuers when we present product details on our site. Before you apply for or take out any product, you should confirm the details directly with the issuer.
We earn revenue from Finder in four principal ways:
Referral fees and commissions. When you click a product link, complete an enquiry form or apply for a product through our site, we may receive a referral fee, commission or other payment from the product issuer. We may also receive payment based on the volume of leads or conversions we send to an issuer.
Sponsored placements. Products marked 'Sponsored', 'Promoted', 'Featured' or 'Advertisement' appear as a result of a commercial arrangement between Finder and the issuer. These labels always indicate a paid placement. We do not use them for editorial choices.
Display advertising. Banner advertising, newsletter advertising and similar display ads on our site are paid by advertisers.
Content sponsorship. Some articles, videos and social media posts are sponsored by an issuer and are clearly labelled as such.
Our editorial opinions, product reviews and any 'Top Pick' designations are prepared independently of these commercial arrangements. A 'Top Pick' is an editorial choice made by our writers and editors based on the criteria described on each comparison page. A 'Top Pick' is not a personal recommendation and does not mean the product is appropriate for your circumstances.
If you would like to know whether we have a commercial arrangement with a specific product issuer, please contact us.
When products are grouped in a table or list, the default order can be influenced by commercial arrangements we have with product issuers. In some categories, sponsored or featured products appear in the top positions of the table by default, and are always labelled as such.
Other factors that influence default order include price, fees and features, and (where relevant) our editorial view of the product.
You can re-sort every comparison table using the controls above the table. You can filter by product features that matter to you. The order you see after re-sorting or filtering is not influenced by commercial arrangements.

I receive a disability support pension and a Carers pension the thing is I had a car which she was involved in an accident which someone rammed into the back of me. The car is a total lost to me and I need to replace that car with a second hand car. My bank hasn’t got back to me about my personal loan yet. But I am looking at applying for a coles credit card of up to $3,000 to $4,000. and I willing to pay it back over 3 to 4 year period on a fortnightly payments. Can I be able to get it or not?
Hi Richard, thanks for your inquiry!
Coles generally requires a minimum income after tax income of at least $15,000 p.a. If you meet this requirement are 18 years or older and are an Australian resident or intend to stay in Australia for the next 12 months with visa permission then you will be eligible to apply. Please note that since finder.com.au is a comparison service and not Coles it would be best to contact them directly to inquire further about your approval for this credit card.
Cheers,
Jonathan
Hi,
I want to apply for Coles credit card. However, I have no job and I only have regular foreign income and I receive interest from my 2 saving accounts. I guess if I write that I am unemployed and I have foreign income, my application would be rejected. So, I would like to know if I write in my application that I work and write my foreign income and interest in the income space from my job, will you check if I really work here or you only check my income. It might worth to tell you that I have had my flybuys card for 4 years and I have been a very good shopper from coles!
It might be a silly question, but I really want to know how a person like me with very good income can have a credit card.
Thank you.
Roz

If I pay for a holiday with a Cole credit card will my holiday be insured?
Hi Debs,
Thanks for your question.
The Coles MasterCard credit cards do not provide complimentary travel insurance. However, you will be provided with Merchandise Protection Insurance, which protects the items you buy with your card in case they are lost, stolen, or damaged. You may also compare credit cards that include complimentary insurance. Please make sure to read the eligibility criteria, features, and details of the policy, as well as the relevant Product Disclosure Statement of the policy before making a decision and consider whether the product is right for you. If necessary, speak to the insurance brand to verify any details.
I hope this answers your question.
Thanks,
Jonathan
Hi, I have never had a credit card before but now I’m considering to make one to build up credit score to prepare for buying a house in the near future. In my case which credit card do you recommend? I normally shop at Coles store and I’m pretty good at paying a bill on due date.
Hi Mia,
Thanks for your inquiry.
The type of credit card will vary depending on your individual needs and spending requirements. You may like to refer to low-interest rate credit cards which provide flexibility and convenience to spend and make purchases on your card whilst taking advantage of low-interest repayments.
Before applying, please ensure that you meet all the eligibility criteria and read through the details of the needed requirements as well as the relevant Product Disclosure Statements/Terms and Conditions when comparing your options before making a decision on whether it is right for you.
Cheers,
Jonathan
