Representative example

Based on example borrowing of £1,200 with an account fee of £15 per month and an interest rate on purchases of 22.94% p.a. variable, you'll receive a 55.0% APR representative variable. Credit limits may vary based on your personal circumstances.

Your standard interest rates will be linked to the Bank of England Base Rate. This means it will change automatically in line with changes to the Base Rate, but any promotional rates and offers you have won't.

As our standard interest rates are variable it means we can also change them for other reasons in the future if we need to.

Good to know

  • Cashback will be awarded monthly to your credit card account - the day after your statement date. 
  • Cashback won't be treated as a payment and you must make at least your minimum monthly payment on time each month.
  • Paying only the minimum monthly payment will take longer to repay and cost you more in interest.
  • You’ll earn cashback on card purchases made by you or an additional card holder. You won’t earn it on anything else added to your account.
  • To continue to earn cashback and access benefits, make sure you manage your credit card in line with the terms and conditions.
  • After your promotional period, foreign exchange fees will be charged at 2.95%.
  • You will still be charged cash withdrawal fees and interest will be charged from the day you take it out.
  • To access and use the full range of benefits on the World Elite Mastercard® and check your cashback balance, you should register for Online Banking and download the Mobile Banking App.


Travel benefits important information

  • Some benefits are provided by third parties and the benefits and providers could change.
  • To provide you with these benefits, Lloyds Banking Group will share information with Mastercard and other benefits providers.
