FAQ

Most frequent questions and answers

The amount you can borrow on a credit card is determined by your credit limit, which is usually in two to five hundred dollars.
This will be determined by factors such as your credit score, how much available income you have after meeting your regular financial obligations, and whether you have other types of credit, such as a mortgage, loan, or overdraft.

Many credit card providers now offer instant approval for credit cards when you apply online. Others take around five to 10 days to make their decision.

Once you’ve been approved for a credit card, it should arrive within 10 working days. You will usually need to activate the card once you have received it by calling an automated number. As soon as you have done that and received your PIN, you can start using your new credit card.

Yes. Unlike with personal loans, there are no penalties if you want to clear your balance early.

Note that if you have a 0% introductory offer with your credit card, it’s important to pay off the balance in full before the 0% deal ends and interest is charged.

In a word, no – but you can add additional cardholders who will then have their own card. You’ll share the single credit limit on the account, but the primary cardholder will be responsible for clearing the debt.

Yes, you can, but it may be expensive as many credit cards charge a foreign transaction fee of around 3% every time you spend. You’ll also be charged for cash withdrawals on top, with interest charged from the moment you get your money.

Instead, it is better to choose a card that is more suited to overseas use and allows you to side-step these fees. You can read more about this in our guide to spending abroad.

A credit card allows you to borrow money which you repay at a later date, often with interest on top. In comparison, a prepaid card requires you to load up the card with cash in advance and you can then only spend what’s on the card.

Prepaid cards can be a good option if you have a poor credit score or if you are on a tight budget, and some prepaid cards can be loaded with foreign currency so that you can use them overseas.
