Balance Transfer

Balance Transfer Plan – It is a feature that allows you to move debt from one or more existing credit cards or loans to a new credit card, typically with a lower or promotional interest rate.
Loan on Card Plan – It is a feature that allows a cardholder to convert their available credit limit into cash, which they can then repay in fixed monthly installments over a set period, often with a specific interest rate.
Installment Plan – It is an easy payment plan breaks down a large purchase into manageable monthly installments, making it easier to afford expensive items over time.
Periodically, certain banks may offer promotional campaigns with highly competitive interest rates. We recommend checking the credit card services page of each bank for the latest offers.

0% Easy Pay
- Only applies at selected partner merchants that have a collaboration with the bank.
- The bank absorbs the cost (or shares it with the merchant), so the customer enjoys true 0% interest.
- Tenure can be quite long (up to 36 months), but strictly limited to purchases at those merchants.
Flexi Payment Plan (FPP)
- Can be applied to any retail purchase (not limited to partner merchants).
- Since it’s not subsidized by a merchant, the bank charges an interest rate (e.g., 9.88% p.a. or similar).
- Gives flexibility but at a cost.
