Balance Transfers

With a balance transfer, we'll pay off your balances from other credit cards and "move" the balances to your Achieve Financial Visa. Transferring balances from a higher-rate card to a low-rate Achieve Visa is a great way to save money on finance charges, lower your monthly payments and pay down balances quicker. Plus, we never charge a balance transfer fee; which can range from 3%-5% at other credit card companies.

Current Cardholders

If you already have a Platinum Visa with Achieve, you can request a balance transfer within Digital Banking. Select Loan & Card Services, then select Visa Platinum Credit Card Access. From the Visa menu, select Manage Card and then Balance Transfer. If you need to increase your credit limit to accommodate a balance transfer, click here to apply.
