Don€™t be afraid to use your credit cards

Monday October 13, 2008

Many Australians are living week to week. They can afford things, but not necessarily when they need them. In a pinch, this can be a real problem. If you need something urgently, credit cards might be the only means you have of paying.

The main trick can be to stay out of credit card debt. By paying your credit cards off immediately is a good idea - but could you be saving even more money?

If you already have a couple of credit cards, it might be time to think if you're using them wisely. You could be paying several annual fees, varying rates of interest, and you could end up having trouble keeping track of all your bills. If you want to save some money, a balance transfer might be able to help you.

If you're confident that you can repay your credit card bills quickly, a balance transfer credit card might help save you money. By combining your owing debt on a single card, you'll only have one credit card bill to follow.
