Common Questions
Are credit cards with 0 interest really interest-free?
Yes, during the promotional period no interest is charged, but interest will apply afterwards unless the balance is cleared.

Can I use a 0% interest card for home updates or furniture purchases?
Yes, many people use them to spread the cost of larger buys such as furniture or home décor in manageable instalments.
Will applying affect my credit score?
Applications usually involve a credit check, which may cause a small temporary dip. Responsible use can help build credit over time.
