A credit card is a way to pay with a set credit limit, which is based on how much you can afford to repay. If you already use our mobile app, applying is just a few quick steps away.

How does a credit card work?

A credit card has a monthly limit and you need to make at least a minimum payment each month to keep it in order. A credit card statement is issued to you each month with your spend details, the minimum payment to make and the payment due date. The minimum payment is 3% of the balance or €6.35, whichever is higher.
