Why your credit card application should be with Barclaycard

All credit cards may seem the same, but if your credit card application with Barclaycard is approved, you'll have a card that really stands out.

14.9% APR typical (variable)

Choose Barclaycard Platinum for your credit card application and you may be eligible for 0% introductory interest-free rates on purchases for three months and on balance transfers for 14 months from account opening. Remember to make your minimum payments on time each month and stay within your credit limit, otherwise your outstanding balance will revert to your standard rate. Balance transfers are subject to a handling fee of 2.9%.

That's not all; complete your credit card application with Barclaycard as we offer a tailored credit limit.
