Zip launches Zip Plus Credit Card

With the credit limit changes coming to Zip Pay on effect on 13th December Zip has started a selective rollout of a new product called Zip Plus. Current eligible customers selected to upgrade will receive an invite to apply for the product in the app.
This new product offers:
Credit limits from $2,000 to $4,000
Pay anywhere with Visa (including overseas)
No international transaction fees
A $9.95 monthly fee will apply if you have a balance owing or no fee if there is no balance
No interest charged on owing balances of $1,500 or less at the end of each calendar month
An interest rate of 12.95% p.a. accruing daily will apply to the owing balance if it exceeds $1,500 at the end of the month
Choose the frequency of your repayments; weekly, fortnightly or monthly - so long as you meet your minimum monthly repayments
For current customers on Zip Pay with credit limits on a $2,000 credit limit they will have their limits reduced to $1,500 on the 13th of December also.
