The "do's" of balance transfers

  • Read the fine print before you get a new card or transfer a balance.
  • Understand the fees, terms and conditions. Fees may be charged as a percentage of the balance transfer.
  • Find out if the interest rate is promotional and how long it'll last.‍ ‍

The "don'ts" of balance transfers

  • Don't transfer balances to a credit card with a higher interest rate.
  • Don't close the credit card you transfer from without understanding the impact. This could affect your credit score.
  • Don't pay less than your monthly payment. Your account could eventually be in default.
  • Don't stop paying your minimum payment due. Balance transfers don't count toward it.

If you transfer a balance, write a Convenience Check, or take a Cash Advance, we will charge you interest on all new and outstanding Purchases (unless you have an introductory or promotional 0% APR on Purchases) until you pay your entire balance in full, including the amount of any Balance Transfer, Convenience Check or Cash Advance. After that, you will have a grace period on Purchases when you pay your entire statement balance each month by the payment due date.
