Either IMB Bank credit card will give you 55 interest free days to pay off your purchases. Taking advantage of these days is one of the most effective ways to limit the cost of using a credit card, so don’t be shy. Remember that this interest free period doesn’t begin when you make the purchase though - it begins at the start of your statement cycle. So to get the most of your interest free days, try to time your big spends for the beginning of the month.
Fees that will apply to your IMB Bank credit card include:
The annual fee (different for each card)
Cash advance fees
Foreign currency conversion fees
Each month, your credit card statement will show the minimum repayment you need to make. How much it is will depend on the balance on your card at the time. It will be the largest of either $30 or 2% of your balance.
Although this is the minimum you need to pay, it’s always a good idea to pay off as much of your balance as you can - that way you minimise interest and reduce the risk of building up credit card debt.
Yep! If you’ve got a credit card balance hanging over your head, find yourself some breathing room with a great balance transfer deal with any IMB Bank credit card. You’ll have a zero interest period to pay off your balance and get your credit card debt under control. But keep in mind that after this period, any balance you haven’t paid off will be charged interest at the higher cash advance rate. So make sure you have a repayment plan in action!

Choose a hard to guess PIN number - 1111 or the year you were born isn’t fooling anyone - and don’t tell anyone what it is or write it down anywhere.
If you’re using your credit card details online, look for the padlock symbol on your browser bar to be sure you’re using a safe connection.
If you use online banking, don’t forget to log off
Report any suspicious emails or activity on your account as soon as you can by calling or emailing IMB Bank.
