Key features

Westpac’s Lite Card is the bank’s lowest rate credit card on offer at only 9.90% p.a. Unlike most credit cards, it doesn’t have a lump sum annual fee, instead you’ll pay monthly card fee of $9 for the card, which totals to $108 per year. You’ll get up to 45 days interest free (as long as you pay your balance in full each month) and you can add a second cardholder free of charge if you choose.

The good news is that if you accidentally miss your credit card due date you won’t be slugged with any late payment fees. But don’t use this as an excuse, late payments still get recorded on your credit file so it is best to set up a direct debit from your bank account on the due date.

Who is it good for

The Lite Card could be good for Aussies who want a no frills low rate credit card that they can use overseas, without having to pay high foreign exchange fees.

Any catches


While you won’t get charged a lump sum annual fee with the Lite Card, you will be paying $9 a month to keep the card active which works out to be $108 over 12 months. If you do pay off your balance in full each month or want a card with a higher credit limit you might be better off opting for Westpac’s Low Rate Card - otherwise, go check out no annual fee cards in our database.
