APR
Interest charging information
You will not pay interest on new purchases if you pay your balance in full and on time. Otherwise, the period over which interest is charged is as follows:
- Purchases: from date transaction is added to the cardholder account until paid in full.
- Cash withdrawals: from date transaction is added to the cardholder account until paid in full.
- If you repay your balance in full, you will pay interest on cash withdrawals on consecutive statements. The first statement will cover the period from the date the cash withdrawal is added to the cardholder account to the statement date and the following will show interest payable between the previous statement date and the date of your repayment
APR
Allocation of payments
We use your payments to reduce the amount you owe in the following order:
- any overdue amounts from previous statements, then
- the remaining balance on your statement; then
- any recent transactions not yet shown on your statement.
We use your payments to pay off balances charged at the highest interest rate first and so on down to balances with the lowest interest rates. This means the more expensive balances are always paid off first.
For further details, please refer to your credit card terms and conditions.
APR
Minimum repayment
You must pay at least the minimum payment every month of the higher of £5 or the total of:
- Any interest charged in the statement period;
- Any Default charges charged in the statement period;
- 1/12th of the annual fees; and
- 1% of the balance shown in the Statement.
If your outstanding balance is less than £5, you must pay the full amount you owe.
If you make only the minimum payment each month, it will take you longer and cost you more to clear your balance.

What do the numbers mean? Representative example
-
This is a figure designed to show how much this account would cost most successful applicants. We use the example of how much it would cost over one year if you borrowed £1,200. It is for illustrative purposes only, and does not reflect the credit limit you will get if you successfully apply.
-
APR stands for ‘Annual Percentage Rate’ and is a figure that includes interest rates associated with your Credit Card. A representative APR is a representative figure and it allows you to quickly compare cards.
-
When you use your Credit Card to purchase items, you will be charged interest on your purchases if you don’t pay it off in full each month. If you pay off the outstanding balance of your Credit Card each month, you will not be charged purchase rate interest.
-
We treat all applications on an individual basis, so the APR you get is determined by the details supplied on your application. Most successful applicants will receive the lowest APR displayed in the representative example.
-
A credit limit is the maximum amount you can borrow on your card at any one time. As part of your application we will undertake an affordability assessment based on what you've told us about your business and how much you would like as your credit limit, and using data we hold on your business or which is available externally. Your credit limit will be based on your current circumstances and may vary.
