Balance Transfer FAQs
If you have a high-interest credit card racking up debt and want to move this amount to a lower-interest card, consider a balance transfer for debt consolidation. Balance transfers are a helpful tool for anyone able to pay off the balance quickly or at a lower rate to save on interest.
Every situation is different. We recommend you reach out to us so we can evaluate your needs, and give you a personalized recommendation.
Too many balance transfers can make it appear to creditors that you can’t pay your bills and are just shuffling high-interest debts to lower interest cards without the intention of paying off these balances quickly.
Most balance transfers are generally processed between 7 to 10 days, but different factors can affect that time frame. We recommend that if you have a scheduled payment coming up on the card balance you are transferring that you make that payment to be safe.
Absolutely! That’s actually a pretty common transaction. If you need help deciding what balances to transfer from what cards we would be happy to help!
