Fraud protection

If your card is used fraudulently, we investigate promptly and aim to restore funds where our terms apply. Report unfamiliar transactions through the app or helpline without delay.

Responsible borrowing

Credit cards are a form of borrowing. You must make at least the minimum payment each month and should aim to repay more whenever possible to reduce interest charges. Missing payments may affect your credit rating and incur fees.

Representative APR varies by product and your personal circumstances. The rate and limit offered are confirmed in your credit agreement before you accept the card.
