The new Coles Low Rate Mastercard combines a Mastercard and a flybuys card into one very convenient piece of plastic, with a low rate of 12.99% on regular purchases (19.99% cash advance rate) with 0% p.a. on balance transfers for 6 months. It also has a rewards scheme where you can earn 1 flybuys point per $2 you spend on the card at Coles Supermarkets. Plus, you could receive $100 off your Coles Supermarket Shop if you apply by 31 January 2021 and spend $500 or more on eligible purchases within 60 days of approval.
Itâs not only the competitive purchase rate and low $58 annual fee that makes this credit card attractive, there's also a tonne of points earning potential and convenience on offer.
The Coles Low Rate Mastercard card is linked to the Coles flybuys scheme so you'll earn 1 flybuys points per $2 you spend at Coles Supermarkets. Plus when you scan your flybuys barcode youâll also earn normal flybuys points (1 point for every $1 spent) helping you to clock up rewards faster. Every time you redeem 2000 flybuys points at the checkout you get $10 off your shop instantly. You could get a further $100 off if you apply for a Coles Low Rate Mastercard by 31 January 2021 and spend at least $500 on eligible purchases within 60 days of approval.
Bear in mind that eligible purchases exclude Cash Advances, Balance Transfers, Special Promotions, BPAY payments, purchases of foreign currency and travellers cheques, transactions made in operating a business, bank fees and charges such as interest and ATM charges.
Tech savvy cardholders can also use the Coles Mobile Wallet App to view and activate flybuys offers on their phone, plus keep track of spending.
The Coles Low Rate Mastercard is an ideal credit card for the loyal Coles shopper who is looking for a low rate card and the opportunity to rack up some rewards on their weekly supermarket trip.
You can only get $10 off your shop when you redeem 2,000 flybuys point at the supermarket checkout, it does not apply to Coles Express or Coles Online.
Set up automated repayments on the due date or you could be up for a $30 late payment fee. There is also a $2.25 fee when you pay your account at Australia Post and youâll be charged $2.00 for every paper credit card statement you receive - so avoid this fee by opting to receive your statements and make payments online.

Low rate credit card but very low on customer service and not transparent. For more than two years now, still not able to register online, canât see any statement or any transaction. Theyâll only send me a notice when my account is overdue, the thing is life is so busy I canât have a track of whatâs going on in that account. I even stopped using it for a long time. Called them many times and every time nobody can help me just to register my account online, so I can have access and be able to see whatâs going on in my account. Will be closing that card very soon, been thinking about it for a long time but keep forgetting to deal with it. And wonât be using them again anymore. I donât recommend Coles Credit Card at all, better you guys look for somewhere else where youâre able to see your transaction online and where thereâs transparency.

Through years I have used many credit cards but I would never ever use it again I wouldn't recommend it to anyone I know as they are not transparent and dishonest.

Making BPAY payments to the account takes too long, up to 4 days where as most other banks are instant. Furthermore, you do not have the option to reduce your card limit online and have to call customer service with poor English-language.
