Hi Syed,
This card offers 6 months interest-free on purchases over $250. So it would depend on whether or not the payment was considered as a purchase. For example, BPAY payments with this card are not considered purchases. As this is a very specific payment, you may want to contact Latitude directly on 1300 552 079 or through the app to check how it would be classified. I hope this helps.

Can Lattitude Gem be use online and in store for Woolworths or Cole’s

Hi Shaz,
Yes, you can use Latitude Gem at Woolworths or Coles, as well as other businesses that accept Visa credit cards. Just keep in mind that the long-term 0% interest plans are only available at participating stores, which does not include Woolworths and Coles. So if you wanted to shop interest-free, you would need to meet the requirements for either interest-free days or 0% for 6 months on purchases of $250 or more, as outlined in this review and by Latitude. I hope that helps.

For service fee, it is stated that the service fee is only applicable when your outstanding balance is $10 or more.
If I make a purchase of $5000 under 50 months interest free plan and I repay the monthly instalment of $100 per month promptly before the due date, would I be charged of service fee every month?

Hi Jan,
Based on the details in the Key Facts Sheet, the monthly service fee would apply in that situation until the total outstanding balance for the account was less than $10. If you have a specific purchase in mind, you could check the offer terms and conditions or contact Latitude Gem on 1300 630 977 to discuss details of potential costs and payments. I hope this helps.

Hi. I was wondering. I cashed out $1000 from my latitude gem visa. How much will i have to pay back? I got a bit confused. My realisation is 3% per day which is capped at $30 until i pay back the full amount. Is that correct? So if i pay back the $1000 in 30 days, that means $30 per times 30 days equals to $900 plus the $1000? So $1900 all up? Also what is the credit limit cashout per day? Because it wouldn’t let me cashout any more money greater than $1000
Thanks

Hi Ema,
Withdrawing cash from this card attracts a 3% cash advance fee, which is charged at the time of the transaction. For a $1,000 withdrawal, this would be worth $30. There are also interest charges for cash advance transactions, which means the card’s 25.9% p.a. cash advance interest rate will apply until the balance is repaid. The amount of interest depends on how long it takes to repay the cash advance – you can use Finder’s credit card repayment calculator to estimate the charges and plan repayments.
You can view details of your cash limit in the Account Summary section of your account when you log in online. For further details on cash withdrawal limits, contact Latitude on 1300 552 079. I hope this helps.
