Heritage Bank Gold Low Rate Credit Card

November 15, 2025

don’t understand – if no interest free days, as you make a purchase or use credit card – do you have to pay for this purchase or use immediately. Can you wait to receive statement & Pay By Due Date without incurring interest???? I always pay my balances in FULL by Due Date. I am a self funded Retiree and have ample funds to pay off balance every month in full by DUE DATE.

Also, will I be granted this credit card if I have no income but get Pension from Super Fund monthly, which is more than sufficient for me to live and save

Do they have physical branches in Melbourne???

Hello,


Unlike most credit cards this one does charge interest on purchases immediately. It is charged daily.


Heritage Bank does not have any brnaches in Melbourne.


At Finder we can help you compared options but we can’t provide any information about your eligibility if you apply for a credit card with a specific provider. Retirees with a regular income via a pension can get approved for credit cards, although it is more difficult.


I’m sorry I can’t be more helpful.

Hello,


This card does give you access to Visa Offers + Perks, but it doesn’t have its own rewards program and it doesn’t earn points. Hope this helps!

Hi James,


This card has no interest free days. This means you get charged interest every day on purchases you make. Each month you will receive a monthly statement with a payment due date.


On that date, you have to repay at least the minimum amount.
