Frequently asked questions
- Is a balance transfer worth the fee?
- It depends on whether the fee plus any post-promo interest is less than the interest you would pay on the original card. Clearing the balance during a 0% promo usually makes the transfer worthwhile.
- What happens if I do not pay it off before the promo ends?
- Any remaining balance starts accruing the standard APR. This calculator switches to the standard rate after the promo length, so you can see the cost of not finishing in time.
- Does the transfer fee get added to my balance?
- Typically yes — the fee is added to the transferred amount, so you pay interest on it too if it is not cleared during the promo. This tool adds the fee to the starting balance.
