Q Card Mastercard NZ
Q Card was created by Consumer Finance Limited as a way for Kiwis to get the most out various purchases, from electronics to travelling, and from furniture to gardening. Whether in-store or online, Q Card lets Kiwis get exclusive discounts on store partners such as Farmers, Mobil, and House of Travel, on top of a 3-month standard interest-free and payment holiday period. The number of Q Card NZ store partners is continuing to grow, so you can expect even more options in the future!
Q Card has evolved into Q Card Mastercard that lets you access Q card deals, rewards, and discounts in various stores. You can do so much more with a Q Card Mastercard such as cash withdrawal and cashless payment wherever Mastercard is accepted. This means you can also use your Q Card Mastercard for all your shopping needs - from overseas transactions when you’re traveling, to everyday groceries.
The Q Card Mastercard is a good fit for someone who’s not comfortable in making huge payments on a monthly basis. It spreads your payment over three months, lessening the interest and giving you more time to breathe. If you’re interested in low interest and exclusive discounts at Farmers, Flight Centre, and other popular NZ stores, considering applying for a Q Card Mastercard.
