The 0% introductory APR offer on balance transfer cards is tempting, but it only helps if you stay disciplined in paying off your current debt and avoid adding additional debt within the 12- to 18-month period. If you don’t mind paying off your debt at a slower pace, pure balance transfer cards usually have a balance transfer period of 18 to 21 months or more. The Slate Card has a top-of-the-line intro APR offer on both balance transfers and purchases that rivals some of the other best balance transfer cards on the market.
