ANZ balance transfer benefits

• Transfer your card balances from non-ANZ credit or store cards onto one card - combine and bring together your outstanding balances into one regular repayment
• You could save on fees, if you’ve been paying fees across a few different credit and store cards
• We’ll make things easier by helping you sort out the transfers.

Promotional balance transfer interest rates for new customers

You can transfer your non-ANZ credit card or store card debt onto any ANZ personal credit card account (subject to approval) but some of our cards have promotional balance transfer rates^disclaimer to help you save more.

Balance Transfer Fees

You may need to pay a one-off Balance Transfer Fee when you take up a promotional balance transfer offer.^disclaimer

How is a Balance Transfer Fee calculated?

The Balance Transfer Fee will be calculated as a percentage of the balance being transferred to your ANZ credit card account.^disclaimer When this fee applies, it’ll be identified in the terms and conditions relating to the promotional balance transfer offer.

Balance transfers and interest free periods

While you have an outstanding balance transfer, interest free periods on purchases do not apply.

If you have a credit card that offers interest free periods on purchases, these interest free days only apply if you’ve paid off your closing balance in full by the due date. If you haven’t paid off your closing balance (or if applicable, your closing balance less Instalment Plan and Buy Now Pay Later Plan balances) in full by the due date you’ll be charged interest on purchases.^disclaimer

Things you should know

We’re able to accept balance transfers of $100 or more from certain non-ANZ accounts (for example, a credit, charge or store card account). However, we’re unable to accept a balance transfer:

• from other ANZ accounts
• from credit cards issued outside Australia
• if the balance on your ANZ card has reached or exceeded 95% of the available credit limit balance
• if you are in default on any existing ANZ credit card account
• if the other account named in your application is in default at the time the application is received.

Please note: If processing your balance transfer means you exceed 95% of your credit limit, we won’t be able to process the full amount (we may however be able to process part of the balance).
