The 1.99% APCO Visa Balance Transfer Special is Back!

Add holiday debt to the unexpected expenses that pop up throughout the year and it’s easy to find yourself overwhelmed. We want to help you alleviate your payment stress by bringing back our Visa Balance Transfer Special that allows you to move your high-interest credit card balance to a lower interest rate credit card from your Credit Union.

Transfer Your Balance
January 4, 2021 through June 22, 2021 you will have the opportunity to transfer your high-interest credit card debt to an APCO Visa Platinum Rewards Credit Card or Visa Signature Rewards Credit Card. Eligible applicants will receive a special, low 1.99% APR on all balance transfers.

The 1.99% balance transfer interest rate is good for six months, giving you the opportunity to pay off that debt at a MUCH lower interest rate than your current credit card offers. Paying off that debt at 1.99% versus your current interest rate could save you hundreds of dollars or more in interest.

Here’s What You Should Know
Other financial institutions make balance transfer offers, but our balance transfer program is different and better:

  • We don’t charge a balance transfer fee. Most other financial institutions charge an average of 3%.
  • If you do not pay off the balance transfer within six months, our standard variable APR will be applied to the remaining balance, based on your creditworthiness.*
  • Everyone gets the same balance transfer rate option.

New and Existing Accounts
The balance transfer option is available to all eligible APCO Employees Credit Union members. If you already have an APCO Visa Platinum Rewards Credit Card or APCO Visa Signature Rewards Credit Card, simply contact us to set up the balance transfer. If you do not have a credit card from your Credit Union, contact us to begin the application process. Once your account is approved, we will help you set up your balance transfer.

After the six month balance transfer promotion ends, your APCO Visa will continue to save you money. Benefits of using an APCO Visa include:

  • No annual fee
  • Membership in uChoose Rewards®
  • Earn 1.75% points on every $1.00 you spend
  • A 25-day grace period on all purchases
