Citi Diamond Preferred Card Highlights

There are a number of features that are attached to this card but the major highlights you will enjoy are:

• 21 month 0% introductory APR on balance transfers
• 12 month 0% introductory APR on purchases

The major features of this particular card that will attract new consumers is the 21 month 0% introductory annual percentage rate on balance transfers.  This is a huge deal for so many consumers because they can transfer a high interest credit card debt from another card onto the Diamond Preferred card at citi.com/applydiamondpreferred and immediately begin saving money in interest.  

With this no intro APR on balance transfers users can realize how much faster they can pay off their old credit card debt because they are not being penalized compounding interest.  Higher credit card balances take longer to pay off because of the continued interest being added on. This card totally eliminates the high interest rate for the first 21 months allowing you the ability to pay the card off.

A secondary feature that is also attractive is the 0% introductory APR for 12 months on purchases.  As soon as you open the account this perk begins and after the 12 months expire the actual credit card APR will kick in depending on your credit between 14% and 24%.
