• Low rate credit cards

If you’re the type of credit card user who does not pay outstanding balances in full each month you can benefit by getting a low rate card. The Your Choice Credit Card that you can get through Regional Australia Bank charges a low ongoing rate, and if you pay your balances in full each month, you can get up to 55 interest-free days on purchases. In addition, unlike many other cards that charge higher cash advance rates, this card charges the same interest rate for purchases and cash advances. Keep in mind it attracts a nominal annual fee.
