Whichever Bank of Melbourne credit card option you choose, you’ll have 55 days to pay off any purchase before being hit with interest charges.
With the exception of the no fee credit card, you’ll pay an annual fee on any Bank of Melbourne credit card, which can range from quite low to significant, depending on which card you opt for. Others include an foreign currency conversion fee and cash advance fee.
Yes! All Bank of Melbourne credit cards offer a balance transfer option, with a fairly leisurely 0% interest period. You can transfer any amount from $200 up to 95% of your credit limit to help you pay off credit card debt. Just make sure you have a plan in place to pay it off before the interest free period is over, because after that, any remaining balance will be charged interest at the higher cash advance rate.
One little bit of fine print to keep in mind is that you can’t transfer balances from other Bank of Melbourne, St.George or BankSA credit cards.
To find out more about getting rid of debt with a balance transfer deal, check out our guide to balance transfers.
Yep! Your Bank of Melbourne credit card works on the VISA network - which means you can use PayWave to ‘tap’ payment for small purchases.
Wherever VISA is accepted your Bank of Melbourne credit card is too. Just remember to factor the foreign conversion fees into your travel budget!
If you opt for a rewards credit card from Bank of Melbourne, you’ve got a few different options, and which one you choose will affect how many points you earn on your spending, and also what you can cash them in for.

Bank of melbourne had the most competitive mortgage during 2021...and that's saying something given everyone was buying houses then. Their app is no where near commonwealth's but their customer service is incredible, I have never left feeling like my time was wasted.
