No foreign transaction fees on purchases or cash withdrawals made abroad
Use your Zero Credit Card abroad and you won't be charged any foreign transaction fees on purchases or cash withdrawals made in the local currency. Please make sure you choose the local currency option when using your card abroad. If you choose sterling, it means that the retailer or bank will handle the conversion and may charge you a fee.
No fees on cash withdrawals at home and abroad
With the Zero Credit Card, we won't charge you a cash withdrawal fee, giving you peace of mind if you do need to use it for emergencies. However, it's important to remember that interest is charged on cash withdrawals and is charged immediately so there's no interest free period. To keep these interest charges to a minimum, you would need to clear your full balance as well as any recent transactions as soon as possible after the cash withdrawal. Some independent cash machine providers may still charge a fee for using their machine - this is different to a cash withdrawal fee on a credit card.

Pre-Contractual Explanation
We've provided a summary below of the important information that's contained in the Pre-Contractual Explanation. The full version of this can be found in the Zero Credit Card Key Facts Document which can be accessed via the link above. You should also read this before you apply.
Is a credit card right for my borrowing needs?
A credit card can be very expensive if you're not careful how you use it. It is best used when you can pay off the full balance quickly.
What interest and charges might apply?
Cash withdrawals are more expensive than purchases because you start paying interest immediately.
We don't charge a monthly fee for this credit card but we do charge a balance transfer fee of 3% (minimum £5) on any balance transfers made during the introductory period. We can change the fees (including the monthly fee and amending the balance transfer fees) and interest rates on your card. We'll let you know in advance if we plan to do this.
Any introductory rate we offer you starts from the date your account is opened.
For detailed information on fees and charges please read the Costs of Credit section in the Pre-Contract Credit Information and condition 8 of the credit agreement.
How much will I have to pay under the credit agreement?
It will cost you more if you only make your monthly minimum payments. It will cost you less if you pay off the full balance quickly.
What are the consequences to me if I do not keep up repayments?
If you miss your minimum payment you get charged a £12 fee, plus the interest keeps building up, so you end up paying back more. We will also record details with a credit reference agency and your credit rating could go down which would make it harder to get future credit. If you miss multiple repayments, your credit rating can be damaged and you might have legal proceedings brought against you. In the very worst case your debt might be secured against your house or your debt may be transferred to a debt management company. To avoid getting into this situation, please contact us if you are having difficulties in making your repayments.
Changing your mind.
You can change your mind up to 14 days after you receive your card. If you do this, you must repay anything you owe.
