Did you know that your Visa card is linked to a Visa account that is independent of your current account?

Associating the Visa card with a separate account gives you more flexibility in relation to your card's usage limits.

How do I manage my expenses?

An unexpected expense? An impulse to finance? The Standby Credit Facility gives you access to additional funds at any time.
By adding a standby credit facility to your current account, you have a permanent credit facility making it easier to meet your needs at any time.

If you have a much larger one-off expense, you simply top up your Visa account (or "top up your Visa card") via a simple account-to-account transfer. You can then use your card immediately.

E.g.: you need to book a vacation for you and your family for an amount of 5000 euros but your credit line does not cover this need. Simply transfer the necessary amount to your Visa account to complete your transaction.

You can easily make this operation anytime anywhere through My ING app available on your smartphone, tablet, computer...

How does the credit line linked to my Visa account work?

The minimum monthly repayment required is 10% of the balance shown on your statement. This must be done by the 5th of the month following the statement.

Any reimbursement of less than 10% of the balance and/or made after the 5th of the month will generate a late fee (see extract from the tariffs).

If you have opted for an automatic refund at 100% or 10%, you only need to ensure that the current account from which your VISA statement is paid has sufficient funds on the 5th of the month.

If you have opted for a manual transfer or a fixed amount, you must ensure that the amount of the transfer is sufficient and/or that it is made before the 5th of the month following your statement.

Title: Line of Credit Workflow Associated with a Visa Account

Description: This flowchart explains the process of spending and repayment for a credit line linked to a Visa card.

Expenditure Period:

  • Start of Previous Month (21st of the month): Marks the beginning of the expenditure period.
  • 5th of the Current Month: Automatic reimbursement, setting the starting balance to €0.
  • Purchases Made During the Month: Examples include a purchase on the 12th for €100 (balance = -€100) and another on the 15th for €300 (balance = -€400).
  • Additional Ad Hoc Funding of the Visa Account (Optional): Opportunity to top up the account. Example of an incoming transfer of €200 on the 17th, bringing the balance to -€200.
  • 20th of the Month: The balance is recorded, and this figure will appear on the Visa statement.

Repayment Period

  • 21st of the Current Month: Marks the end of the expenditure period.
  • 5th of the Following Month: Automatic reimbursement.
    Repayment Methods: Three available options:
    • 1st Repayment Method: Automatic transfer of 100% of the incurred amount. In this example, €200 is deducted.
    • 2nd Repayment Method: Partial automatic transfer of 10% of the incurred amount. Example: €20 is deducted, leaving an outstanding balance of -€180.
    • 3rd Repayment Method: Transfer of a fixed amount set by the user. Example: €100 is deducted, leaving an outstanding balance of -€100.

Additional Notes:

Combining additional ad hoc funding of the visa account and automatic reimbursement helps to avoid late payment fees. 

Important Information:

  • Repayment Methods Option: Can be modified through the My ING app.
  • Statement Date: The date falls between the 19th and 21st of the month (excluding public holidays).

Note: Transactions made between the 20th and the 5th of the following month are recorded in the next period.
