Credit card that offers 0% interest

Many people live fearing of high-interest credit card, maybe that's why some avoid using credit card and make a safer deal with debit card or others prefer UPI options. But credit card is not full of debt. It provides discount, reward points and a time to repay back, etc. I've talked about many beneficial things about credit card on my previous blog.

Credit card that offers 0% interest rate. Is there any credit card like that? Well, some credit cards do offers 0% for particular amount of time and after the period over, interest rates will often get high.

So, yes credit cards do offers 0% interest, at least for certain period of time. The period we get is up to 12 to 21 months. And some issuer provides credit card with 0 interest rate for 18 momths. Credit card won’t charge you any interest till that period, but still, you’ll have to pay the balance that you’ve utilized, after month end. I.e., before your due date.

If you lose to make the payment, in your 0% interest rate period, then might the issuer will cancel the 0% interest offer. Credit cards issuers are that punctual, try not to missed out even for single day.
