Transfer Debt to Another Credit Card
Credit Card Balance Transfer Calculator
Are credit card balance transfers worth it? At some point in time, you are likely to receive an offer in the mail. Transfer an existing credit card balance to a new card and receive a promotional interest rate for a set number of months. Are these offers worth it? It depends on the promotional
interest rate, the length of the promotional period, what the standard interest rate is once the promotional period expires and what the fee is to transfer your balance from one card to another. During the promotional period, you might be paying a
lower rate, or 0% depending on the offer. Are the interest savings greater than the balance transfer fee? Whether they are a good deal or not also depends on how long it takes you to pay off the card balance once you move it to a new card.
