What is a no annual fee credit card?

A no annual/monthly fee credit card doesn’t charge you for account maintenance, which is ideal if you want to keep your costs low or if you don’t use your card regularly and can’t justify paying high fees.

Credit cards that involve an annual or monthly fee typically come with more rewards than no-fee cards, so consider how you use your card. It may be the case that added benefits such as travel insurance or cashback on purchases outweigh the expense of the fees involved.

Promotional offers and perks available on no annual fee credit cards

If you want more benefits than just savings on your credit card’s annual/monthly fee, compare credit cards that couple zero fees with anything from a 0% balance transfer offer to a rewards programme.

No annual fee credit cards with a 0% balance transfer offer

Balance transfer credit cards let you move debt from an existing credit card to a new card with a low or 0% promotional interest rate. With no annual/monthly fee and a low or 0% balance transfer offer, you could have a cost-free way to consolidate your debts.

What should I consider before applying for a card?

If you’re interested in getting a no annual/monthly fee credit card now, ask yourself these questions to help compare your options:

• How often do you use your credit card? If you rarely use a credit card but still want one for unplanned expenses or emergencies, a no annual/monthly fee option will give you the features that you need without burning a hole in your pocket while you’re not using it.
• Do you carry a balance? No annual/monthly fee credit cards sometimes have higher interest rates than others, which can mean it takes longer – and is more expensive – to clear a balance. If that’s the case, you might want to consider a low interest credit card instead.
• Do you have existing debt? If you have existing debt, getting a no annual/monthly fee credit card could tempt you to spend more money than you can afford. Aim to pay off your current debts, or consider a balance transfer credit card to save money on interest charges.
• What credit card benefits do you want? No annual/monthly fee credit cards sometimes have fewer perks than other options. If you’re interested in features such as rewards programmes and complimentary insurance, make sure you look at a range of cards and consider these factors as well as the annual or monthly fee so that you can find an option that suits all of your needs.
• Will you use the credit card after the zero annual/monthly fee promotion ends? If the card comes with no annual fee for a promotional period, consider whether you want to use the card once the introductory period ends. If the card doesn’t have a competitive interest rate or extra features to outweigh the annual/monthly fee cost, you might want to consider switching cards to a zero fee option before the annual fee applies.

Benefits and drawbacks of zero annual/monthly fee credit cards

Benefits

• Save money on your credit card. The most obvious perk of these cards is that you won’t pay an annual or monthly fee. This could save you a significant amount over the life of the card.
• Practical. Without the extra perks and additional benefits, no annual/monthly fee credit cards can be ideal for emergencies and when extra credit is required.
• Promotional offers and deals. Some no annual/monthly fee credit cards come with promotional offers, frequent flyer programmes and other perks that you’d regularly have to pay a yearly fee to access.

Drawbacks

• Higher interest rates. Credit card companies may charge higher ongoing interest rates on no annual/monthly fee credit cards. This could add to your costs if you regularly carry a balance from month to month.
• Fewer extra features. While some no annual/monthly fee cards do come with frequent flyer programmes and other benefits, they usually have fewer features than cards that charge annual or monthly fees.
• Temporary £0 annual fee. Unfortunately, not all of these cards offer no annual/monthly fee for the life of the card. If your card only offers zero fees for a promotional period, make sure you know when the standard annual fee will apply and how much it is to avoid any surprise costs.

As there are many types of zero annual/monthly fee cards on the market, it’s important to consider your financial situation and how you intend to use the card. Make sure to consider not only the conditions of the fee, but also the other features, benefits and costs of the card before you apply.

Answers to the most popular questions

• If I have a credit card with a promotional annual fee offer, can I cancel the card before having to pay the annual fee?

  This is possible as long as you don’t have a balance on the card and cancel it before the annual or monthly fee is applied. Contact your provider to confirm exactly when the fee is charged so you don’t accidentally pay it before cancelling the card.

• When do you normally pay the annual fee on a credit card?

  The way you pay the fee depends on your bank and the type of credit card you have. Some credit cards involve a monthly fee, which will be added to your monthly statement. Banks which charge annual fees may charge the full year’s fee upon account activation, or break it down into smaller regular payments. You can either pay the fee in full, or over time, as you would pay for any other purchase on your credit card.

• When will the annual fee be charged if I get a credit card that offers no annual fee in the first year?

  If you have a card with a promotional no annual fee offer, the fee will usually apply 12 months after you were approved for the card. If you don’t want to pay this fee when the offer ends, confirm with your bank when the annual fee will be charged and cancel your card before that time.

• Is there any way to extend my annual fee waiver?

  Some banks will waive annual fees for an extended period if you take out another product with them, such as a loan, savings account or mortgage. You can also ring your bank and simply ask if they’ll consider waiving your fees for longer – they want to retain happy customers, after all.

• What is the best no annual fee credit card?

  Because everyone has different preferences and needs, there is no such thing as the “best” no annual/monthly fee credit card. Instead, you should consider whether or not zero fees are a promotional offer or an ongoing feature, and the other costs and features that come with the card. Make sure that the card is an affordable and functional way to manage your finances before you apply.

• I want a no annual fee credit card for travel. What other features should I consider?

  To keep your travel costs down, you may want to consider a credit card with no annual or monthly fees and no overseas transaction fees, or a card that offers complimentary travel insurance. Also, make sure that the card you’re using is accepted wherever you’re travelling and that it isn’t restricted by economic sanctions.

• Is there a business credit card with no annual fee?

  Many business credit cards offer no annual fee promotions. Business credit cards can often charge high annual fees and/or rates of interest, as they tend to come with a lot of extra features.

• Can I get a no annual fee credit card if I have lots of debt or bad credit?

  Having a bad credit rating can limit your chances of being approved and getting the card.
