Important things you need to know

You’ll receive £20 cashback when you spend £500 or more within 90 days of opening your account.

The cashback will be paid into your account within 28 working days (excluding weekends and bank holidays) after you spend the £500. You’ll see the cashback in your account transactions list shortly after, and on the next statement you receive after that. This may be up to 28 days later.

You’ll qualify for the offer provided that you:

Apply for a Barclaycard Platinum Purchase credit card between 23 December 2024 and 6 February 2025

Are accepted for the Barclaycard

Spend £500 or more within 90 days of opening your account

Make your monthly minimum payments on time

Stay within your credit limit

Haven’t given us notice to withdraw or close your account at the time the cashback is due

Don’t already have a Barclaycard and have not had a Barclaycard within the past 6 months

Any refunds will be deducted from the overall amount you’ve spent and will not count towards the £500.

Some types of card transactions won’t count towards your £500. These are:

Balance transfers

Money transfers

Cash withdrawals

Buying currency or traveller’s cheques

Cash-like transactions (such as money orders or wire transfers)

Gaming-related transactions (such as gambling, betting and buying lottery tickets).

This offer may be withdrawn at any time.

At least 8 out of 10 customers accepted last month received the longest promotional period for this card. This depends on your credit history and how you’ve managed credit in the past. For the remaining customers we may offer you

0% for up to 22 months for purchases and 19 months on balance transfers with 31.9% APR variable

0% for up to 11 months for purchases and 9 months on balance transfers with 31.9% APR variable

The balance transfer fee will remain the same and of course if you’re not happy with an alternative you don’t have to go ahead with it.

And remember, the 19 month balance transfer and 22 month purchase offer periods start from the date the account is opened. That means if, for example, you don’t take it out for 60 days you’ll have 2 months less of the 0% rate.

If you decide to apply, please make sure you read the information below carefully. It tells you what you need to do to keep your 0% interest rates and what happens when your 0% interest offer ends.

To benefit from the balance transfer offer it needs to be taken out within 60 days of opening the account.

The 19-month balance transfer period starts from the date the account is opened. That means if, for example, you don’t use it in the first 60 days, you’ll have two months less of the 0% rate.

Due to the way we’ll calculate your credit limit, it might go down if you don’t complete a balance transfer within 60 days of opening the account.

This offer is only available for new customers and Barclaycard reserves the right to withdraw this offer at any time.

The minimum you can transfer is £250 across up to five different balance transfers. The maximum amount can vary, depending on your individual credit limit and the existing balance on your Barclaycard. We’ll let you know the maximum amount you can transfer if your application is successful.

You can only transfer balances from cards issued by other banks, not from any other Barclaycard or any of our partner-branded cards.

When your 0% offer ends you’ll be charged interest at your standard rate for anything new you buy and for any outstanding balance on your card.

Your standard and cash interest rates will move up and down in line with the Bank of England Base Rate or for other reasons that we’ve explained in your Terms and Conditions. Base Rate changes will not apply to your promotional interest rates. To learn more visit barclaycard.co.uk/understanding-interest.

Your new account will be set up with digital statements. These can be found in your online Barclaycard account, which you will need to register for. You can choose to switch to paper statements at any time.

This offer is only available for new customers and Barclaycard reserves the right to withdraw this offer at any time.
