When interest is charged

Interest is charged when you carry a balance on your Summerland Credit Union credit card. Interest is charged on cash advances from the date of withdrawal and balance transfers from the date of transfer (fees and charges may apply).

When interest is not charged

At the time of writing, Summerland Credit Union’s credit cards offer an interest-free period of up to 55 days on purchases. To qualify for these interest-free days, you must pay in full the closing balance shown on that statement by the due date, as well as the closing balance of your previous statement by its due date.

Your credit limit for a Summerland Credit Union credit card will be determined based on the information you provide in your application, keeping in mind the minimum and maximum credit limits available.

You can close your Summerland Credit Union credit card at any time by contacting Summerland Credit Union. Your card balance will still need to be repaid in full even after the card is closed, and you will continue to receive monthly statements until your card balance is fully repaid.
