#Balance Transfer Promotion: The promotional balance transfer rate is available when you apply and are approved for a new Vertigo, Amplify Platinum or Amplify Signature credit card between 3rd March 2021 and 28th September 2021, and request at card application to transfer balance(s) from up to 3 non-BankSA, St.George and Bank of Melbourne Australian issued credit, charge or store cards. The promotional rate will apply to balance(s) transferred (min $200 up to 80% of your approved available credit limit) for the promotional period, unless the amount is paid off earlier. Activating your card triggers the processing of the balance transfer. A balance transfer fee of 1% of the transferred balance(s) will apply to balance(s) transferred to a Amplify Platinum or Amplify Signature credit card. The balance transfer fee will be charged to the card account on the same day the balance(s) are debited to the account. No balance transfer fees apply to a Vertigo credit card. The applicable variable cash advance rate will apply to any unpaid balance transfer amount remaining at the end of the promotional period. BankSA will not be responsible for any delays that may occur in processing payment to your other card account(s) and will not close the account(s). If your account has an interest free period for purchases, to be entitled to that interest free period, you need to pay off the “monthly payment balance” listed on your statement of account (not the full closing balance) by the relevant payment due date.
