Our research and findings are independent of any bank, credit card issuer, or product manufacturer/service provider, and have not been endorsed by any of these entities. Please see our Advertising Policy for more details about how we make money.

Find a card based on what you spend each month:

Our shortlist has you covered for rewards, cashback and free flights. If you're spending at least $500 a month on credit card-friendly merchants (e.g. supermarkets, petrol stations and everyday expenses), we list the most rewarding cards:

Firstly, do you struggle to pay off a credit card? If so, we suggest considering a balance transfer credit card such as the ASB Visa Light and then avoiding credit cards altogether until your finances improve. Credit cards interest is expensive, and debts can become impossible to clear. We're campaigning in the media to make people aware of the appalling costs - if you'd like to share your thoughts, please get in touch with our research team.

Do you spend around $500 a month? We suggest considering The American Express Airpoints Card - it costs $0/year and gives you 1 Airpoints Dollar for every $1,000 you spend. Bonus: 50 bonus Airpoints Dollars when you apply, are approved and spend $750 on your new Card within the first 3 months. New Card Members only.

Do you spend between $500 and $1,500 a month? We suggest considering The American Express Airpoints Platinum Card - it costs $195/year fee and gives you a wide range of benefits, including 1 Airpoints Dollar for every $59 you spend. You'll also get 500 bonus Airpoints Dollars when you apply, are approved and spend $1,500 on your new Card within the first 3 months. New Card Members only and you'll need to apply before 8 August 2022.

Do you spend $1,500+ a month? We suggest considering an Airpoints card (both The American Express Airpoints Platinum Card and Kiwibank Airpoints Platinum Visa lead by way of fees, rewards and benefits).

Do you spend $5,000+ a month, own a (profitable) business and/or charge back a lot of work-related expenses? If so, we suggest considering the top-tier American Express Platinum Charge Card, a unique and rewarding option. However, the card fee is not cheap ($1,250/year fee) but cardholders enjoy extensive reward, travel, hotel, dining and insurance benefits. If you're a business owner, the annual fee is tax deductible while the benefits/rewards are not subject to fringe benefit tax. As a background, 200 points = $1 of statement credit (i.e. cashback on your spend), and cardholders earn 2 points per $1 spent.

MoneyHub Founder Christopher Walsh shares his views on Credit Cards:

Banks (arguably) offer credit cards aggressively to their customers, but my view is that these cards don't deliver the value they should do in many situations. I frequently receive complaints about poor value bank "cashback" and "reward" cards, just as I do about bank savings account interest rates (as outlined in this Stuff.co.nz column).

What's worse - interest rates average around 18% p.a. as per data published by the Reserve Bank. With over $3 billion outstanding every month, New Zealanders spend approximately $500 million a year on just servicing the interest. That's close to $1.5m a day paid out to credit card companies. Repaying credit card balances can drag on for years and I receive emails every week from everyday New Zealanders who are in a credit card debt trap - please don't let this happen to you.

My view is simple: No one should rush into a credit card application. For this reason, we've explained the cards below in detail to help your decision-making process. If you are in any doubt about what you can afford, it's likely that the best credit card is "no credit card".

Our Favourite Credit Cards by Category (Airpoints, Rewards and Cashback)

We're frustrated with the low level of rewards and cashback offered by banks. We don't think being charged $40+ a year to have a rewards credit card that only gives you a $10 voucher for spending $1,500 to $2,000 is a good deal. Sadly, it is the norm. What is somewhat helpful is the range of balance transfer offers and long-term low-interest rate cards.

Everyone's credit card needs are different, so we've shortlisted five must-consider options to make life cheaper, easier and more rewarding. Our top credit cards are as follows:

1. Our pick for the best Balance Transfer credit card: The Co-operative Bank Fair Rate Credit Card - this card offers 0% interest for six months, $20 annual card fees and a low interest rate after that. If you're serious about paying off credit card debt in six months and getting 'debt free', this card is arguably the fastest way to do it.

2. Our pick for the best Airpoints credit card (most popular): The American Express Airpoints Platinum card - $195/year fee, earn 1 Airpoints Dollar for every $59 spent (the best rate in New Zealand), status points, lounge access and other travel and insurance perks. Bonus offer: You'll also get 500 bonus Airpoints Dollars when you apply, are approved and spend $1,500 on your new Card within the first 3 months. New Card Members only and you'll need to apply before 8 August 2022.

3. Our pick for the best free rewards and benefits credit card (no annual fee card): The American Express Airpoints Card - $0/year fee. Earn $1 of rewards (Airpoints Dollars) for every $100 spent, redeemable at the Airpoints Store (with 6,000+ reward options) or on flights. Bonus Offer: 50 bonus Airpoints Dollars when you apply, are approved and spend $750 on your new Card within the first 3 months. New Card Members only.

4. For general rewards and cashback we have shortlisted three cards:

a) Our pick for the rewards is the American Express Gold Rewards Card. It offers a generous AMEX point earning ($1 = 2 points, and these points can be redeemed for statement credit, flights and other rewards). It also offers two $100 dining credit every year. Our review explains the Gold Rewards card further.

For pure cashback, we suggest considering the. For pure cashback without anything complicated, the SBS Visa Credit Card gives you 67 cents for every $100 you spend on the card with no annual fee. You don't need to be a SBS Bank customer either.

For a top-earning rewards card that has near-endless reward options, we suggest considering the American Express Airpoints Platinum card. The fee is $195/year fee, and it earns 1 Airpoints Dollar for every $59 spend (the best rate in New Zealand). It also offers status points, lounge access and other travel and insurance perks. You can spend Airpoints Dollars on gifts, food and beverage, Mitre 10 and other hardware shops, flights and thousands of other options. Bonus offer: You'll also get 500 bonus Airpoints Dollars when you apply, are approved and spend $1,500 on your new Card within the first 3 months. New Card Members only and you'll need to apply before 8 August 2022.

b) Our pick for the best cashback and general rewards (high earner, business owner etc.): If you earn 'six figures' and have a high-end lifestyle and a work situation that lets you charge back expenses to your company or employer, the American Express Platinum Charge Card is unique and rewarding. However, the card fee is not cheap ($1,250/year fee) but cardholders enjoy extensive reward, travel, hotel, dining and insurance benefits. If you're a business owner, the annual fee is tax deductible while the benefits/rewards are not subject to fringe benefit tax. As a background, 200 points = $1 of statement credit (i.e. cashback on your spend), and cardholders earn 2 points per $1 spent. If you can chargeback work expenses and tend to spend $3,000+ a month on your card and use the extensive benefits, this card will most likely deliver value.

5. Our pick for the lowest interest rate credit card: The Kiwibank Zero Visa - $0/year fee. This card offers a strong 12.90% p.a. interest rate, low card fees and a 1.99% p.a. balance transfer offer. If you don't always pay off your credit card, but have a regular income and don't drag balances, Kiwibank's offer is likely to be the most cost-effective.

Know This:
  • You can apply in only a few minutes, and there is no obligation to have a credit card issued. 
  • MoneyHub suggests that anyone unable to pay off a monthly credit card balance should look for an alternative source of credit. The majority of credit cards charge interest rates that can make repayments challenging to manage.
  • Are you looking for something else? Take a look at our must-have Credit Cards list which has a number of our favourite options that offer unbeatable value for money.
  • We previously had several buttons featuring low-interest credit cards and balance transfer credit cards. However, we don't want to endorse credit card debt products or encourage debt creation, so we removed them. However, you can find the best offers in their relevant section on this page.

The Deal:

asb rewards credit card
Runner Up (Rewards): ASB VISA Rewards

​Our View: Forget the high-end rewards such as Samsung phones - no one is going to spend $300,000 to earn one - and focus on the small rewards. Kiwis spending a standard amount on their credit card every month can redeem cashback earnings through a wide selection of "partner stores". 

​The Deal:
  • Earning rate: 1 "True Rewards Dollar" per $150 spent, or 1 for every $75 spent at Mobil
  • Rewards: $1 of rewards value per $150 spent  (calculated at 67 cents per $100 spent). Rewards can only be redeemed at partner stores and not taken off a credit card bill directly.
  • Interest rate: 20.95% p.a.
  • Annual fee: $40 ($20 charged every six months)
  • Monthly payments: Must be above the monthly minimum (either 3% or $10 of the balance owing - whichever is greater)
  • True Rewards points never expire
  • Redemptions: Merchandise and voucher rewards start from 20 True Reward Dollars, with retailer partners including Mobil, Farmers, House of Travel, Vodafone top-up - all options are found at the True Reward partner store.

Our Favourite Credit Cards by Category (Airpoints, Rewards and Cashback)

We're frustrated with the low level of rewards and cashback offered by banks. We don't think being charged $40+ a year to have a rewards credit card that only gives you a $10 voucher for spending $1,500 to $2,000 is a good deal. Sadly, it is the norm. What is somewhat helpful is the range of balance transfer offers and long-term low-interest rate cards.

Everyone's credit card needs are different, so we've shortlisted five must-consider options to make life cheaper, easier and more rewarding. Our top credit cards are as follows:

1. Our pick for the best Balance Transfer credit card: The Co-operative Bank Fair Rate Credit Card - this card offers 0% interest for six months, $20 annual card fees and a low interest rate after that. If you're serious about paying off credit card debt in six months and getting 'debt free', this card is arguably the fastest way to do it.

2. Our pick for the best Airpoints credit card (most popular): The American Express Airpoints Platinum card - $195/year fee, earn 1 Airpoints Dollar for every $59 spent (the best rate in New Zealand), status points, lounge access and other travel and insurance perks. Bonus offer: You'll also get 500 bonus Airpoints Dollars when you apply, are approved and spend $1,500 on your new Card within the first 3 months. New Card Members only and you'll need to apply before 8 August 2022.

3. Our pick for the best free rewards and benefits credit card (no annual fee card): The American Express Airpoints Card - $0/year fee. Earn $1 of rewards (Airpoints Dollars) for every $100 spent, redeemable at the Airpoints Store (with 6,000+ reward options) or on flights. Bonus Offer: 50 bonus Airpoints Dollars when you apply, are approved and spend $750 on your new Card within the first 3 months. New Card Members only.

4. For general rewards and cashback we have shortlisted three cards:

a) Our pick for the rewards is the American Express Gold Rewards Card. It offers a generous AMEX point earning ($1 = 2 points, and these points can be redeemed for statement credit, flights and other rewards). It also offers two $100 dining credit every year. Our review explains the Gold Rewards card further.

For pure cashback, we suggest considering the. For pure cashback without anything complicated, the SBS Visa Credit Card gives you 67 cents for every $100 you spend on the card with no annual fee. You don't need to be a SBS Bank customer either.

For a top-earning rewards card that has near-endless reward options, we suggest considering the American Express Airpoints Platinum card. The fee is $195/year fee, and it earns 1 Airpoints Dollar for every $59 spend (the best rate in New Zealand). It also offers status points, lounge access and other travel and insurance perks. You can spend Airpoints Dollars on gifts, food and beverage, Mitre 10 and other hardware shops, flights and thousands of other options. Bonus offer: You'll also get 500 bonus Airpoints Dollars when you apply, are approved and spend $1,500 on your new Card within the first 3 months. New Card Members only and you'll need to apply before 8 August 2022.

b) Our pick for the best cashback and general rewards (high earner, business owner etc.): If you earn 'six figures' and have a high-end lifestyle and a work situation that lets you charge back expenses to your company or employer, the American Express Platinum Charge Card is unique and rewarding. However, the card fee is not cheap ($1,250/year fee) but cardholders enjoy extensive reward, travel, hotel, dining and insurance benefits. If you're a business owner, the annual fee is tax deductible while the benefits/rewards are not subject to fringe benefit tax. As a background, 200 points = $1 of statement credit (i.e. cashback on your spend), and cardholders earn 2 points per $1 spent. If you can chargeback work expenses and tend to spend $3,000+ a month on your card and use the extensive benefits, this card will most likely deliver value.

5. Our pick for the lowest interest rate credit card: The Kiwibank Zero Visa - $0/year fee. This card offers a strong 12.90% p.a. interest rate, low card fees and a 1.99% p.a. balance transfer offer. If you don't always pay off your credit card, but have a regular income and don't drag balances, Kiwibank's offer is likely to be the most cost-effective.

Know This:
  • You can apply in only a few minutes, and there is no obligation to have a credit card issued. 
  • MoneyHub suggests that anyone unable to pay off a monthly credit card balance should look for an alternative source of credit. The majority of credit cards charge interest rates that can make repayments challenging to manage.
  • Are you looking for something else? Take a look at our must-have Credit Cards list which has a number of our favourite options that offer unbeatable value for money.
  • We previously had several buttons featuring low-interest credit cards and balance transfer credit cards. However, we don't want to endorse credit card debt products or encourage debt creation, so we removed them. However, you can find the best offers in their relevant section on this page.

ANZ Free Credit Card
Runner Up: ANZ Low Rate Visa

Our Favourite Credit Cards by Category (Airpoints, Rewards and Cashback)

We're frustrated with the low level of rewards and cashback offered by banks.
