Balance Transfer Credit Cards FAQs
A balance transfer card is a credit card that features a balance transfer offer that consists of a zero or low introductory APR period. The way it works is that new cardholders who transfer a balance within a certain time frame gain access to a period of 0% APR. This provides the cardholders with more time to pay down debt without added interest charges. There’s usually a balance transfer fee of at least 3% of the total balance, but some cards may waive it.
When you transfer a balance, you move an existing balance from one credit card to another. The original card balance will decrease by the amount you move over, and the balance you transfer (plus a balance transfer fee) will appear on the new card.
Transferring a balance from one credit card to another usually involves a balance transfer fee. Balance transfer fees can vary between 3% to 5% of the balance amount. The fee is rolled into balance, so you don’t have to pay it up front.
A balance transfer fee is the fee charged by a credit card issuer when you move a balance from an existing card to a new card.
A balance transfer may take anywhere from a few days to several weeks, depending on the issuer. This time period also depends on when you make your request. If you initiate a balance transfer when you first open a new card, you may have to wait until you have the physical card in hand. Or the issuer may set a specific time period for when the transfer will finish.
