What is the interest on a deferred purchase or bill (personalized payment)?

With the personalized payment, you can defer the payment of any purchase made with the card or the monthly amount owed, provided this amount is at least €50.

The monthly payments will be for a fixed amount (which includes principal and interest if it is a personalized payment with interest, or principal and fees if it is a personalized payment with fee) and will depend on the term you choose, from a minimum of 3 months to a maximum of 36 months. This amount will be charged to the account on the 5th of each month.

The first payment in both cases is different:

For a personalized payment with interest, it only includes interest.

For a personalized payment with fee, only the deferral fee is charged.

Once you take out the card, you can use both the BBVA app and bbva.es to calculate your monthly payment based on the repayment period you choose.

Example of personalized payment with interest:

Interest rate: 7.16% a year.

Credit limit: €1,500.

The first payment will be for €4.41 and it only includes interest.

The next 11 installments will be for €141.29 each.

The total amount payable will be €1,558.60 and the APR will be 7.35%.

Deferral fee: 1.40%, 1.70%, 2% or 2.25% of the amount financed, depending on the period chosen (3, 4, 5 or 6 months).

Interest rate: 0% yearly.

Credit limit €1,500.

The first payment will be for €33.75, which only includes the deferral fee, which is 2.25% of the amount financed.

The next 6 installments will be for €250 each.

This system applies only to each specific settlement for which it is requested.

What interest do deferred revolving payments have?

With a deferred revolving payment, you can pay a fixed amount of your card bill each month. This payment method charges interest.

Interest rate: 7.16% a year.

Credit limit: €1,500.

The monthly payment settlement date is the last business day of each month. On the 5th of the following month, you will pay a fixed monthly amount that includes principal, interest and fees.

The minimum monthly amount is €12, and you can choose any higher amount.

The payment chosen is used to pay the interest and agreed expenses first, and then to repay the loan or the balance you draw down. Because of this, selecting lower payments could lead to a smaller proportion of the principal being repaid every month.

Once you take out the card, you can use both the BBVA app and bbva.es to calculate the repayment period based on your chosen payment method, as well as the total interest payable, if any.

You can also use the Bank of Spain's revolving card simulator to calculate the approximate total card payment or the final payment date, based on the amount and the payment method chosen.

Remember that you can change the payment method for your card whenever you want.

Example of deferred revolving payment with fixed payment

This example complies with the information requirements of Order EHA/1718/2010, which governs and controls the advertising of banking services and products, the conditions of which may not correspond to those of the contract.

If you make a purchase for €1,500 with a NIR of 7.16% and you choose to make a fixed monthly payment of €36.03, you would have to pay:

48 monthly payments of €36.03.

The total amount payable will be €1,729.44 and the APR will be 7.50%.

IMPORTANT: Due to the BBVA Employee Platinum credit card settlement system, it is not always possible to make repayments in 48 equal monthly installments because the minimum amount payable is 3% of the balance drawn. This means that every month, you will pay the higher of the following amounts:

The selected fee, made up of principal, interest and fees.

Or 3% of the credit drawn before settlement, plus the interest and fees for the period.

If you get this card and on the same day, for example, April 15, 2024, you make a purchase for €1,500 and choose to make payments of €32 on the 5th of each month, the total amount payable over 48 months, assuming an NIR of 7.16%, would be €1,703.46. The APR will be 7.35%.

Remember that if you decide to pay the bill on the 5th of the month, you will have to pay interest from the settlement date until the payment date.

This card cannot be issued with a credit limit of €1,500.
