Gold Credit Card

Going overseas? Get medical and legal assistance

Over 21? Earn at least £20,000? Choose our Gold Credit Card for balance transfers, everyday purchases and built in extras.



Take control of your card

Manage your credit card online

Check your balance or make a payment from your computer.


Worry-free payments

A Direct Debit means you’ll always pay your bill on time. Settle the balance in full or choose any other amount. However, we don’t recommend just making the minimum payment and you must have sufficient funds to pay your direct debit successfully.


Credit limit increase

You can ask us to review your credit limit after you’ve had the card for six months.


Move funds to a bank account

You can transfer money from your Gold Credit Card to any UK bank account. You simply pay your money transfer rate from the date of the transfer, and the minimum transfer is £250. See our rates and charges.


Cash advance

Your Gold Credit Card gives you access to £500 each day, from cash machines around the world. The amount you can withdraw depends on your credit limit, and there’s a 3% handling fee - a minimum of £3.

Purchases and balance transfers

Purchases

Pay a low rate of just 4.9% on all your purchases for a whole nine months from account opening.

After the introductory period, your purchases will be charged at your standard rates. Find out more about purchases – see our rates and charges.


Transfer your balances

Why not consolidate your existing debt into one easily manageable sum by transferring balances from your existing cards to your NatWest Credit Card.

There is no fee and so your transferred balances will just be charged at your standard rates. Find out more about balance transfers - see our rates and charges.


Transfer up to a limit of 95% of your credit limit

If your new Gold Credit Card has a limit of £2000, you could switch up to £1900 of your existing balances.

Financial benefits

Interest-free period every month

If you pay your balance (and your previous month's balance) in full and on time each month you'll enjoy up to 56 days' interest free credit on all purchases.


No annual fee

We don’t send you a bill just for choosing a Gold Credit Card.
