Credit Card Offers

If you’ve been bombarded with credit card offers but just don’t know what to do or where to go, let us help! Here you will find everything you need to compare credit cards, compare offers, interest rates and interest-free periods. These are all things you need to consider when opting for a particular credit card.

For example, many cards offer an interest-free period, with the trade-off being a yearly fee. So you should have a think about whether you are in a position to be able to pay off your credit card quickly, and not incur interest, so you can skip the cards with the annual fee.

If however you rely heavily on a credit card, and are (for example) paid monthly so you cannot always pay your balance off within the interest-free time allowed, then you might need to choose a card with an annual charge and a long interest-free period.

Of the several St George Bank Credit Cards on offer, the Vertigo offers a very low interest rate, 55 days interest-free – but the annual fee is $45. This might be one card to consider if you need a little longer to pay off your balance and are willing to pay a yearly fee.
