Terms and Conditions
Important: If you are applying for selected credit cards at the same time or after your Premier Advantage Package is set up, or if you are switching or upgrading from an existing Westpac card, or if you are accessing employee benefits, you are not eligible for any special promotional offers (such as any promotional balance transfer rate) available at point of application. Please check the details at card application. Fees and charges are payable. Terms and conditions are available on request. Credit card applications are subject to Westpac's normal lending criteria. An additional card can be issued on the primary cardholder’s credit card account to any nominated person 16 years or over. All transactions using the additional card will be the responsibility of the primary cardholder. Information about a third party’s products or services is provided for convenience only and does not represent an endorsement by Westpac of the products and services.

Credit Savvy: Westpac’s lending policies and guidelines are designed to ensure we lend responsibly. Make sure the credit limit you apply for is realistic and you have checked the interest rates, fees and charges on your selected card before you apply. Always aim to pay off more than your minimum monthly repayment amount as making minimum payments is not effective way to manage credit card debt. There can be reasons, such as job loss or illness, which can mean that even the most responsible borrower might get into temporary financial difficulty. If you find yourself in this position, just call us on 1300 651 089.

2. The earning of Qantas Frequent Flyer points on eligible purchases through the use of Earth Platinum is subject to the Earth Platinum Conditions of Use (PDF 238 kb) (Opens in new window). Qantas Frequent Flyer points are not earned on cash advances and balance transfers (see Earth Platinum Conditions of Use for what we regard as cash advances. This includes the purchase of gambling chips, traveller’s cheques and ATM withdrawals). You are not entitled to points in other circumstances - see the Earth Platinum Conditions of Use. You must be a member of the Qantas Frequent Flyer program to earn and redeem points in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Qantas Frequent Flyer program. A joining fee usually applies, but is waived for new Earth Platinum cardholders where card applications are received and approved by 31 December 2011.

3. This promotional rate is available to customers who are applying for new Earth cards and request at application, to transfer the balance(s) from non-Westpac credit card(s), charge card(s) or store card(s). This promotion is only available at point of application. Subsequent balance transfers will be charged at the standard variable purchase interest rate (currently 19.99% p.a.) and will be treated as purchases with no interest free days applying to them. Payments made to your credit card account are first applied to any amounts transferred from other credit cards, charge cards or store cards under this promotion, before they are applied to any other purchase or cash advance amount. This means that the portion of your outstanding account balance that is subject to a lower interest rate will be paid off first. You will not gain the benefit of the interest free period on credit purchases until the full balance (including any balance transfer and any other promotional amount) is paid by the statement due date each month. After 9 months the balance transfer rate will switch back to your credit card standard variable rate for purchases then applicable to your product. Each balance transfer must be a minimum of $200.
