Typical features and benefits

Introductory interest rates

Balance transfer credit cards usually offer an introductory interest rate on transfers.

Stay in control

With your card balances in one place, they could be easier to manage.

Multi transfers

Make as many transfers as you like within your agreed credit limit.

  • Handy for transfers

    • You can request balance transfers as part of your Lloyds credit application. That way, you won’t have to wait until your new card arrives by post to start the transfer process.
    • Once your account is set up, you can request a balance transfer online using online banking or our mobile app.

    Other standard features

    • Manage most things online. Check your balance, review transactions, view paper-free statements, make payments, request transfers and more.
    • Fraud protection. You won’t be charged for transactions you didn’t authorise. But you must let us know if you notice unusual account activity, or if you lose your card.
    • Ways to pay. Make repayments by bank transfer, debit card or direct debit. Pay more than the minimum at any time to reduce your borrowing costs.
    • Contactless cards. Pay quickly and securely anywhere you see the contactless symbol.
    • Mobile payments. Add your credit card to a mobile device to make secure payments online, and on the go.
    • UK call centres. We’re just a phone call away – here for emergencies.

Let's break it down

Who it's for

You can apply for this card if you:

  • are a UK resident aged 18 or over
  • have a regular income
  • don't have a history of bad credit, such as bankruptcy, Individual Voluntary Arrangement (IVA) or County Court Judgments (CCJs)
  • haven't been declined for a Lloyds credit card in the last 30 days.

Important to know

Just keep in mind:

  • you can’t transfer balances between Lloyds credit cards
  • you can only transfer up to 93% of your credit limit
  • our minimum transfer amount is £100
  • transfer fees may apply.

Balance transfer credit card features may vary. Make sure you understand all limitations, terms and conditions before you apply.

Before you go ahead

Ask yourself

  • Does a credit card suit my needs, or should I consider other borrowing options?
  • Will I be able to make repayments, even if my circumstances change?

In addition to fees and charges, you could lose any promotional rates if you don’t meet the terms of your account. For example, if you don’t make at least the minimum payment on time each month. If a promotional rate is withdrawn or simply expires, the standard account interest rates, fees and charges will apply.

Let’s look at the details

  • You can use a balance transfer credit card to move balances from most other credit cards, and some store cards too.

  • You can request a balance transfer from most credit cards, and some store cards. Usually, cards that display a Mastercard®, American Express® or Visa® logo.

    You can’t transfer a balance from a loan company, bank account, or another Lloyds credit card.

  • To take advantage of any promotional interest rates, you may need to make qualifying transfers within a set number of days from account opening. After that, the standard account interest rate would apply to further transfers, unless a new transfer offer is made available to you. Terms may vary, so always check any offer details carefully.

  • Once approved, your balance transfer will normally arrive the next working day.

    To protect your credit score, continue making any required payments to your existing credit or store card provider. At least until your balance transfer is complete.

  • With a balance transfer, you can move credit or store card balances to another credit card.

    With a money transfer, you can move money from your credit card to your UK-based bank account. Please note: Section 75 protection does not apply to money transfers.

    Transfer fees may apply to either type.

  • Some credit card providers will allow you to transfer balances from accounts that aren’t held in your name. Just be aware, it’ll become your responsibility to repay that balance.   

    At Lloyds we don’t offer this as an option. To request a balance or money transfer, the name and address on both accounts must match.

  • Draft credit card account terms and conditions (PDF, 382KB)

    We'll send you a full set of terms and conditions specific to you once you’ve been accepted for the credit card.

  • Responsible lending

    Lloyds is a responsible lender. We only want you to borrow what you can afford, in a way that’s best for you. The outcome of your credit card application depends on our assessment of your circumstances.

    You can talk to a member of our team about the choices you've made. They’ll also be able to talk to you about your options if you’re experiencing financial difficulties.

    A note on fraud

    You won't have to pay us for any unauthorised postal, telephone or internet transactions made by someone other than you or an additional cardholder. But you and additional cardholders must take all reasonable measures to protect your account.

    You should never tell anyone your PIN. You can give suppliers your card details and won’t be liable if they misuse them. But if you’ve given someone else your card details, you’re liable for all transactions unless you’ve told us they’re not authorised.
