Low rate, extra interest-free days and shopper rewards are among the benefits
Once again Coles has taken out our award for Credit Card Issuer of the Year, having won last year for the first time. When searching for a winner, Joshua Sale, research analyst at Canstar, says it was looking for a well-rounded provider that could meet a wide range of customer expectations. After all, there are many different reasons you might want a credit card so it’s hard to find a one-size-fits-all provider.
