20 Month Balance Transfer Credit Card

You've been pre-approved for a 20 Month Balance Transfer Credit Card

Just before you start:

As long as you enter the same details as submitted on the eligibility calculator your pre-approval will be in place for 24 hours. To apply in full, just click on the 'Continue' button below.This will take your application through our fraud, money laundering and bankruptcy checks. And just so you know, once you complete the application, your credit file will be updated to show other lenders that you applied for the card.

We want to provide you with the right level of support throughout your application. If there's anything that could affect your ability to understand the application you're making, or if you'd prefer to apply by phone, just call us. Unfortunately, we can’t use your pre-approval in a phone application. However, if you call we’ll be happy to discuss your needs and offer suitable support.

If required you can ask for your correspondence in another format eg. Braille / Audio. Just contact us after you’ve completed your application and we can do this for you.

Please note:

  • 0% interest on balance transfers for 20 month
  • A Balance Transfer fee of 3.24% or 4.24% (£4 minimum) applies to transfers made within the first 90 days after application. We will confirm the fee if your application is accepted, and you should consider any fee when deciding if you wish to proceed. After the 90 days, the fee will depend on any offer available at the time
  • We may not be able to process balance transfers from some providers. Check our exclusions
  • Transfer money to your current account after opening your Sainsbury's Bank Credit Card at your money transfer interest rate with a fee of 4% (minimum £4). The charge will depend on the offer available at the time. Check the Summary Box for details
