Many credit cards seduce with a low introductory rate on balance transfers, before charging excessive rates when you start making purchases or cash advances. This is not so with the Credit Union SA Visa Credit Card.

After the first 6 months of 0% pa on balance transfers, you’ll still enjoy a low ongoing interest rate– currently 10.49% pa – with the same low rate applying for all purchases and cash advances.

You’ll have the ability to make fast payments with Google Pay™, Apple Pay, Samsung Pay, Fitbit Pay, Garmin Pay™ and Visa payWave.

It’s also highly secure, with microchip technology, 24/7 fraud monitoring, Visa’s Zero Liability policy and Visa Secure for online purchases from participating merchants and payWave.

You’ll also be able to temporarily lock your card (if you misplace it), plus block payWave, international and online transactions whenever you need to – using the Mobile Banking App or Internet Banking.

You can apply online, call us on (08) 8202 7777 or visit us at 400 King William Street, Adelaide.

We do not charge any fees when using ATMs within Australia. However, some ATM operators may charge a fee to process your transaction or balance enquiry. If withdrawing cash overseas a fee may be charged by the ATM operator and the details will be disclosed at the time of the transaction or enquiry. Other fees and charges may apply. This is general advice only and you should consider the terms and conditions before determining whether any of our products are suitable to your situation.

You are able to complete up to 20 payWave transactions per day per card with a daily limit set at $1,000.

Both cards allow you to purchase items online, over the phone and in over 30 million shops worldwide. They also allow you to withdraw cash at over 1.4 million ATMs worldwide.

The difference is that when you transact with your Visa Debit Card, funds are deducted from your bank account whereas with a Visa Credit Card you are making purchases on credit and we’ll send you a monthly statement outlining your transactions and the outstanding balance of your account.
