The Heritage Bank Platinum Credit Card
The Heritage Bank Platinum credit card comes with Heritage Credits- you earn 3 credits for every $1,500 you spend on the card each month. When you use the card and you don’t have an existing balance from the previous month you also get 55 days interest free to pay off the purchases you make.
This card has a very reasonable annual fee for a rewards card, $125 per year, and you will also have access to the Visa Entertainment program.
What we love...
The Heritage Bank Platinum credit card has everything you would expect from platinum card. You benefit from complimentary insurance covers for travel overseas and in Australia, purchases, extended warranties, and more. Access to a concierge service which comes in handy if you need to book tickets to a show, holidays or even a restaurant recommendation.
What’s not so great...
The earn rate is low with 3 Heritage Credits for every $1,500 you spend on the card each month. For example a Coles $50 eGift card is valued at 32 Credits as at 8 August 2018. That means you would have to spend $16,000 on your card to receive the 32 Credits.
