About this product

Nationwide’s purchase and balance transfer credit card offers 0% interest on all purchases and balance transfers for 15 months.

The 0% interest also applies to spending abroad. You can apply if you have a Nationwide current account, savings account or mortgage. You can’t apply if you already have a Nationwide credit card.

Nationwide credit card reviews help you find out what it’s really like to be a customer. If you’ve used Nationwide before, you can also leave a review and share your experience.

A human instead of a credit score.

5
I got my credit card with a high credit limit despite a fairly poor credit score and I was able to balance transfer a more expensive card and I now pay a really good APR and hope to end my debt much sooner as a result. So nice to be treated like a human being instead of a credit score. Reviewed on: 3rd April 2023
