Cards

Both cards allow you to purchase items online, over the phone and in over 30 million shops worldwide. They also allow you to withdraw cash at over 1.4 million ATMs worldwide.

The difference is that when you transact with your Visa Debit Card, funds are deducted from your bank account whereas with a Visa Credit Card you are making purchases on credit and we’ll send you a monthly statement outlining your transactions and the outstanding balance of your account.

We offer 0% pa on balance transfers for six months at any time on your credit card plus one of the lowest ongoing interest rates in Australia on purchases and cash advances.
