The Problem

Credit card users face confusion over opaque payment allocation rules between promotional and standard APR balances, unexpected interest charges when 0% periods end, system errors like double transfers or continued direct debits after payoff, and lack of real-time visibility into transfer status—leading to costly fees and credit score damage.

Potential Solution

A financial monitoring SaaS that securely connects to your credit cards via Open Banking, automatically tracks all promotional balances, expiration dates, and payment hierarchies. It provides real-time transfer status updates, flags system discrepancies within 24 hours, predicts interest charges based on actual payment allocation rules, and optimizes payment strategies to maximize interest savings across multiple cards.

Why Now?

With UK credit card debt exceeding £60B and 40% of users relying on balance transfers to manage costs amid rising interest rates, complex promotional terms and unreliable banking systems have created a critical need for automated protection tools that prevent costly errors before they happen.

Balance transfer help? Have I done something wrong
I’ve transferred a balance of £2700 from my NatWest to Barclays card for 0% interest for 2 years. I did it yesterday evening. The NatWest card still shows the original balance but the Barclay card has the new balance with the fee added I got a text saying “Your balance transfer of £2,723.00 to your Barclaycard ending xxx is almost ready. It shouldn't be long, we'll let you know once it's gone through.” Do I just sit and wait and it eventually clears the original NatWest balance?

How to balance transfer the non-promotional rate portion of my credit card only.
Hi I have a credit card that about half the balance is on a 0% offer and the rest (£2800) is on the standard 9.9%. I have another card with nothing on that has offered me a 0% rate. If I transfer £2800 will it automatically transfer the £2800 that is on 9.9% or could it transfer from the amount that is on 0% as that was more recently added? Thanks
