Fees, charges and credit criteria apply. Introductory offer is for new Ready Credit applications only.

  1. Introductory rate: Offer commenced 1 May 2024. The introductory interest rate of 8.9% p.a. will apply to balance transfers you request with this offer within 3 months from account approval. The introductory rate of 8.9% p.a. will apply for a promotional period of 5 years. The 5-year promotional period will commence once the initial balance transfer is processed. This promotion will be treated as a balance transfer in accordance with the Unsecured Credit Terms and Conditions and Other Important Information. Any balance transfer requests submitted with your application will be processed when you activate your account. If you do not submit a balance transfer request with your application, you will need to call us to submit a balance transfer request within 3 months from account approval to request one, otherwise the introductory rate will not apply to your balance transfer and you will be charged the standard variable Annual Percentage Rate (APR), currently 20.99% p.a. (22.49% p.a. effective 20 October 2024). During the introductory period, repayments are allocated to balance transfers before retail purchases and cash advances, which attract interest at the standard variable APR of 20.99% p.a. (22.49% p.a. effective 20 October 2024). At the end of the promotional period, the APR on any outstanding balance transferred with this offer will revert to the standard variable APR. This offer excludes balances transferred from other Citi branded unsecured credit products. We may vary or end this offer at any time.

  2. Reduced establishment fee: Offer commenced 1 May 2024. An Establishment Fee of $149 will be debited to your Ready Credit account on the date we issue the first statement of account after you activate your account. The Establishment Fee is billed in addition to the amount borrowed. We may vary or end this offer at any time.
