How Do 0% APR Business Credit Cards Work?

With these cards, credit card issuers typically offer 0% interest for a limited period of time: 12-24 months is typical. After that introductory period ends, the interest rate will revert to a higher variable rate APR. Any remaining balance, as well as new purchases, will accrue interest at that new rate as long as there is a balance on the card. (Most cards offer a grace period so you can pay the balance in full each billing cycle to avoid interest charges.)

Benefits of 0%APR Business Credit Cards

Provide startup financing

It’s often hard for new businesses to qualify for business loans, and these cards can provide crucial startup capital at a low cost. 

Finance large purchases for a short period of time

Depending on the intro APR period, you may have several months or over a year to pay for a large purchase without incurring interest. This may give you time to earn revenue on that investment to help pay back the debt, or simply free up cash flow for other purposes.

Help build business credit

Almost all business credit cards report to at least one business credit reporting agency, and on time payments can help build good business credit scores.

Separate personal and business credit

Most business credit cards don’t appear on the cardholder’s personal credit reports unless they don’t pay back the balance. This can help protect the business owner’s personal credit from high debt utilization. 

Track business expenses

Using a business credit card to pay for business expenses helps keep your business finances organized, and can make tax time easier. 

Earn rewards and perks

If your 0% APR card also earns rewards, like cash back or rewards points, or perks like car rental insurance, you can really come out ahead.
