Money transfer credit cards
Move money into your bank account at 0% interest for a set period of time.
What is a money transfer credit card?
With a money transfer credit card, you can transfer funds into your bank account, usually at 0% interest for a set period of time. You could use this money to pay off an overdraft, settle an unexpected bill or in those situations where only cash will do. You’ll need to transfer the money from your card directly into your bank account and you may have to pay a fee.

Credit card FAQs
It is possible to transfer money from a credit card into a bank account. An easy way to do this is by applying for a money transfer credit card.
A money transfer credit card allows you to move a percentage of your available credit card limit into your current account. You can transfer up to 95% with one of our credit cards, though this amount can vary by provider. There may also be a fee for transferring the money.
To arrange the transfer of money from one of our credit cards to your account, head to the ‘Account Management’ section of our Mobile Banking App or visit Online Banking.
You can borrow up to 95% of your available credit limit, and the money will be in your bank account within 1-2 working days. The fee will be a percentage of the amount you want to transfer. This percentage will depend on your terms and conditions.
Please note that your available credit will not take into account any interest that is due to be applied to your account. Please ensure you have sufficient funds left to cover this (unless you are on a 0% promotional interest rate, in which case this will not apply).
If it's the right thing for your circumstances, you could use the money to pay off an overdraft or for unexpected essentials where only cash will suffice.
A balance transfer card lets you move debt from one credit card to another. A money transfer allows you to move money from your credit card to your current account.

APR is short for Annual Percentage Rate. It tells you the cost of borrowing, as a percentage of the amount you owe, over a year.
You can use the APR to work out how much a credit card, loan or mortgage, or other forms of credit will cost. The APR includes the interest rate charged, along with any fees.
Most credit cards have a variable APR, and all it means is that the Annual Percentage Rate for a credit card may change over time. If the APR on your card is going to change, you’ll be notified in advance.
Most of our charges and fees relate to when you move money between accounts, withdraw cash, or pay for things abroad. You may also be charged if you go over your credit limit or miss a payment. You can check your interest rate on your monthly statements.
To see the complete list, read our page on charges, fees, and interest.
Under Section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act you could get extra protection if something goes wrong on single purchases that cost between £100 and £30,000. So if something you've paid for turns up broken or faulty, or if it doesn't arrive at all, you may be able to get your money back through a Section 75 claim.

Yes, you can manage your credit card with Online Banking or on our Mobile Banking App.

A Tesco Bank Credit Card is also a Clubcard, so when you spend on it in Tesco you’ll collect your normal Clubcard points (1 point for every £1 spent) plus an extra 1 point for every £4 you spend.
When you buy Tesco fuel (excluding Esso) you’ll collect your normal Clubcard points at an enhanced rate of 1 point for every 1 litre bought (usually 1 point for every 2 litres with a Clubcard alone) and you’ll get 1 extra point for every £4 spent.
When you spend outside Tesco you’ll collect 1 point for every £8 you spend.
Points are calculated on single transactions and you must have available credit. Points collection rates are subject to change. Remember there are some things you won’t collect points on.
The Tesco Clubcard Scheme is administered by Tesco Stores Limited, Tesco House, Shire Park, Kestrel Way, Welwyn Garden City, AL7 1GA who are responsible for fulfilling Clubcard points.
You can only collect points on purchases, so cash withdrawals, cash transactions, balance or money transfers, gambling transactions, buying travel money and regular payments like standing orders and Direct Debits don’t count.
There are also some products at Tesco you can’t collect points on, see the Clubcard website for details.
Every 3 months your Clubcard points are turned into Clubcard vouchers. Or you can choose to get them quicker with Faster Vouchers.
Your vouchers can be used to spend at Tesco, in store, online or on fuel (excluding Esso), or they can be exchanged to get up to 2x the value of your vouchers with Tesco Reward Partners.
The calculator works out how many Clubcard points you could collect if you had a Tesco Bank Credit Card and used it to pay for items in and out of Tesco.
Based on the amounts you enter into the calculator, we work out the number of Clubcard points you could collect and give an idea of the amount in Clubcard vouchers.
The fuel calculator uses an average price per litre to calculate the number of points, based on 1 point per litre bought. Calculation based on average fuel price per litre. Average price per litre is based on both petrol and diesel and an average fill of 33 litres. Average price per litre updated monthly.
Remember though, your points will be worked out on each individual transaction that you make and not on your total monthly spend. So, this means the calculator only gives an indication and the actual points you receive could vary.
Don't forget that you'll need to spend a minimum amount to begin collecting Clubcard points.
When you open a credit card account with us you’ll be automatically enrolled into the Clubcard scheme if you’re not already a member, and Tesco Bank will share information with Tesco Stores for the operation of your Clubcard account.
Clubcard accounts are managed separately by Tesco Stores, and you should visit the Tesco Stores privacy notice for further information about how Tesco Stores uses your information.
