Credit Cards With Introductory 0% Purchases Deals

Although balance transfer deals, cash back offers and low interest rates usually steal the limelight when it comes to evaluating a new credit card's offerings, introductory 0% purchases deals are also a very valuable feature to have.

As well as allowing the cheap financing of an expensive purchase - so long as you clear the debt within the introductory period of course - they can also act as a financial buffer zone, giving you a cost-free pool of spending power to dip into when money gets tight at the end of the month.

Introductory purchase deals have generally been for shorter periods than balance transfers, although in recent years they have started to catch up, and 0% for 12 months is now a fairly common feature.
