Your questions answered

General

Yes. If you choose to only make the minimum monthly repayments, you’ll end up paying more interest and it may take longer to pay off or reduce your credit card balance. It could be tempting to simply pay this amount. But if you keep doing this, it could end up costing you much more in interest in the long run.disclaimer

Your statement should include a ‘minimum repayment warning’, which shows you two different scenarios.disclaimer Depending on how big your closing balance is, these two scenarios can be chalk and cheese. The first scenario gives an estimate of how long it could take you to pay off your credit card closing balance if you only make the minimum repayment each month and make no more purchases. It also provides an estimate of how much interest you could end up paying over that timeframe (assuming you make no new transactions, and fees and interest don’t change). The second scenario gives an estimate of how much you’d need to pay each statement period to pay off the closing balance in two years (assuming you make no new transactions, and fees and interest don’t change). This scenario includes an estimate of how much you could save in total interest charges.

   

When you make an eligible purchase with your ANZ credit card, you may have a period of time to repay the amount without being charged any interest. This is an interest-free period.disclaimer

Whether an interest free period is available and what period of time can vary. Please refer to our credit card education pages for more info. 

   

A balance transfer lets you transfer the debt from your non-ANZ credit and store cards to a new card. It can be a way to consolidate multiple debts or move debt from one card to another that has a lower interest rate or a promotional balance transfer offer. See credit card education for more information.

   

No. If you have more than 9 months remaining on your visa, you are eligible to apply for an ANZ credit card. 

   

Credit scores

Yes. A credit rating or history plays an important part in assessing credit card applications, but it’s not the deciding factor. Your employment history, expenses, assets and liabilities are also considered.

   

The credit reporting bodies will provide you with one free credit report per year. Additional reports can be requested at a cost.

To obtain your credit report you’ll need to contact one or a combination of the credit reporting bodies.

Visit the Credit Smart website for more information

  

There is no quick fix, improving your credit score will take time. Getting on top of your repayments and ensuring they are made on time is a good place to start. For more tips on how to improve your score, visit the Credit Smart website.
