Low Interest Credit Cards

Low interest cards are ideal for consumers that wish to hold onto a credit card for longer than the introductory period, avoiding the hassle of having to switch cards as soon as a cards standard rates kick-in. Low interest cards may not offer 0% offers, but rates start low and stay low. If you intend to transfer a balance across from an existing credit card, it may cost you more than a 0% balance transfer card to begin with, but the rate will never change dramatically, like you would see with a 0% card after the introductory period expires.

As with most credit cards, you still get around 56 interest free days, so provided you always pay the balance off on full at the end of each month, you will never pay any interest.
