#### How does credit card interest work?

The interest incurred on your credit card is charged when you don’t pay off your full balance by the set due date. How much interest you’ll pay will depend on the type of card you have, how much you have spent and when you make your repayments.

#### How do I apply for a credit card?

The first step is to compare our credit cards. Decide which product suits your needs, then once you have decided which card you would like to apply for, click ‘Apply now’. It should take less than 10 minutes to complete if you have all your info on hand, and once approved we'll have your card out to you within 10 working days. We'll need to know your age (minimum age is 18 years), Australian residency status, your driver’s license if you have one and your current financial details, including employment and monthly expense and income details.

#### How is my credit limit determined?

Your credit limit is determined when we apply our credit assessment criteria to your individual financial situation.

#### How does the interest-free period work?

You'll enjoy interest-free days on all purchases, providing you repay the full balance on your card each month, excluding any fixed payment option balance which isn’t due for payment by that payment due date.

Interest-free periods also don't apply to cash withdrawals, and you will incur interest from the date the transaction is made (regardless of whether the account is repaid in full each month). You'll be charged interest on retail purchases if the statement's full closing balance is not repaid by the due date.

Balance Transfer indicative list  
Balance Transfer involves transferring the balance(s) of your other credit cards or loans to a BOQ Credit Card. The balances transferred will receive a promotional interest rate for a set period of time and can be a great way to save on interest charges.  
Once your balance(s) have been transferred, you might consider closing the other credit facilities you transferred balances from, as this would not happen automatically  
When considering a Balance Transfer promotion, it’s easy to focus on the low, or zero, interest rate being offered however don’t forget to consider the other features of the card and any applicable terms and conditions of the promotion.  
Most credit cards or loans from other financial institutions are eligible to have balances transferred to a BOQ Credit Card, provided that the card details match the BPAY reference number details of the financial institution. Where those details do not match, we are unable to process a balance transfer.  
We are aware of some financial institutions where card number and BPAY reference number do not match and which as a result are not eligible for a Balance Transfer, including:  
   * Bendigo Bank  
   * ING  
   * Latitude Finance  
   * Great Southern Bank  
   * Heritage Bank  
   * HUMM  
   * Adelaide Bank  
   * credit unions  
   * AMEX cards  
Please note, that this is an indicative list only and may change from time-to-time.  
Balance transfers are not available for Buy Now Pay Later, line of credit, or personal loan products.
* 22  
Whether or not a purchase is eligible to earn Points will be determined based on card scheme information ultimately provided either by the merchant (including individual outlets) or its financial institution (including information about the type of business conducted by the merchant). If, for example, a restaurant is not classified as a restaurant by the card scheme, it will not be treated as a “major restaurant” for calculating Points. Points earned on Eligible transactions are rounded down to the nearest whole point.

    Balance Transfer indicative list
    Balance Transfer involves transferring the balance(s) of your other credit cards or loans to a BOQ Credit Card. The balances transferred will receive a promotional interest rate for a set period of time and can be a great way to save on interest charges.
    Once your balance(s) have been transferred, you might consider closing the other credit facilities you transferred balances from, as this would not happen automatically
    When considering a Balance Transfer promotion, it’s easy to focus on the low, or zero, interest rate being offered however don’t forget to consider the other features of the card and any applicable terms and conditions of the promotion.
    Most credit cards or loans from other financial institutions are eligible to have balances transferred to a BOQ Credit Card, provided that the card details match the BPAY reference number details of the financial institution. Where those details do not match, we are unable to process a balance transfer.
    We are aware of some financial institutions where card number and BPAY reference number do not match and which as a result are not eligible for a Balance Transfer, including:
    • Bendigo Bank
    • ING
    • Latitude Finance
    • Great Southern Bank
    • Heritage Bank
    • HUMM
    • Adelaide Bank
    • credit unions
    • AMEX cards
      Please note, that this is an indicative list only and may change from time-to-time.
      Balance transfers are not available for Buy Now Pay Later, line of credit, or personal loan products.

    Whether or not a purchase is eligible to earn Points will be determined based on card scheme information ultimately provided either by the merchant (including individual outlets) or its financial institution (including information about the type of business conducted by the merchant). If, for example, a restaurant is not classified as a restaurant by the card scheme, it will not be treated as a “major restaurant” for calculating Points. Points earned on Eligible transactions are rounded down to the nearest whole point.
