Image Description Image Description

The Latitude GO Mastercard

Latitude GO Mastercard is a credit card offered by Latitude Financial Services (formerly owned by GE Money). It offers flexible interest free payment plans when you spend over $250 on everyday purchases. You can just select the purchase on the app and create an interest-free payment plan with no fees.

This card also comes with travel perks, giving you 10% off selected hotels at Expedia and Wotif when you book before 30 September 2024, and stay before 31 December 2024.

For a limited time, the Latitude GO Mastercard is offering $200 credit back to new and approved cardholders. To earn the credit back, you need to spend $1500 or more each month on everyday purchases for 3 consecutive months from the date of approval. The credit will show up within 60 days of meeting the criteria.

✏ Note: Latitude says the following are not eligible purchases for the $200 credit back: "Everyday purchases do not include cash advances, cash equivalent transactions, card fees or charges, credits, refunds, reimbursements, Long term Interest Free plan(s), interest and balance transfers into an account. Transactions must be fully processed and any pending transactions at the end of the period will not count towards the spend criteria for that period. The account must be open and not in default of the credit contract when the credit is applied".

What we love...

This card’s highlight feature is its flexible interest free payment plans. Purchases need to be over $250 to qualify, and you can pay them off interest-free for up to 6 months (but you will need to make minimum monthly payments of 3% of the balance). You can turn as many purchases into payment plans as you like.

Latitude also has a partnership with Harvey Norman, Domayne and Joyce Mayne that allows you to get even longer interest-free payment options - up to 60 months, in some instances. These stores sell big-ticket items such as furniture, home improvement items and electrical goods, which could make interest-free repayments very helpful.

For these retailers, there are 3 types of Interest Free Payment Plans that are available on the Latitude GO Mastercard.

  • Equal Monthly. You pay the same amount every month. Plans vary and are only available during select promotional periods.
  • Minimum Monthly. With this option you pay minimum monthly payments and can make extra payments where you can. Plans start from 6 months.
  • Flexible. No repayment required during the Interest Free period however you can make payments at any time. Plans start from 3 months.

The Latitude GO Mastercard also features $0 account establishment fee, an interest free period of up to 55 days, convenient instant cardless payment via Apple Pay, Samsung Pay, Google Pay, Fitbit Pay, and Garmin Pay and seamless management of payments with the Latitude App.

What's not so great...

This cardcharges $10.95 monthly account servicing fee when your outstanding balance is greater than $10. This could add up to a total of $131.40 per year.

In terms of interest rates, it charges a very high interest rate of 27.99% p.a. on cash advances and expired long-term interest free payment plans so you need to make your repayments on time and should never run a balance on the card.

Why should you choose this card?

If you’re into shopping and looking for Buy Now Pay Later programs, this card is the right choice. With the thousands of partner stores, there are also a wide range of products available. Interest Free Payment Plans are also flexible which cater to how you want to pay your purchases.

You can also apply in 10 minutes and receive a response in a minute and if approved, activate your card and start shopping conveniently through instant cardless payment with Apple Pay, Samsung Pay, Google Pay, Fitbit Pay, and Garmin Pay. Manage and track your payments with the Latitude App.

Overall rating

The Latitude GO Mastercard partner retailers come with hot offers featuring the interest free terms up to 60 months with selected retailers or 6 months for everyday purchases over $250. It also features 27.99% p.a. interest rate on purchases, and no establishment fee. The limited-time $200 credit back is a nice bonus, too.

I work full time have zero debt and was still declined - do not apply for this if you are a single mother. Not that I know why I was declined as they do not tell you what is involved in their lending criteria

This company is an absolute rip off and only want to take of advantage of you and take your money. Changed me $4000 in fees because i work away from home and can’t check my statements all the time. Been a customer for over 10 years and i will now NEVER use your card again and I’ll make sure to talk bad about your greedy company to all my friends and family. I hope this company goes under for all the people you have taken advantage of. Do not care about your customers one bit!!

I got this card whilst making purchase at Harvey Norman and took advantage of the card. The good point is the interest free period which you have to note so you make payments before the period. (Good point) The downside is that you will be slugged with a $4.95 account fee plus $0.95c for payment processing fee, every time you make the payment. Personally I would pay off the card in one go but moving houses, I lost track so I was slugged with the above. This card is useful for purchases but ensure you pay off during the interest free period or else the balance can escalate monthly. I would not be recommending this card to keep after you have made the purchase. due to on-going fees with the card.

Funny how everybody complains about Go mastercard. Just read product review. For me they are great because I dont spend money I dont have. I use the card for everyday use as well as paying my bills. The way I use it means that towards the end of the monthly biling cycle I make 1 payment from my bank account to Go mastercard. As an example from Dec 26 2017 to Jan 22 2018 I spent $2300.00 on my Go mastercard. So on the 22nd of Jan 2018 I paid my monthly credit card debt using their online payment. I zero'd my account out. I pay no interest, account fee, bpay fee-nothing. I earn points which allowed me to redeem from a huge list, a gopro4. This is just 1 of multiple items redeemed. If you live off credit you will pay as per the terms and conditions. If you use the card but zero out the balance each month, then for using the card you get rewarded. The real issue from my observations is living beyond your means.

Fundamentally unethical company. This credit card product will get you in a tight spot and you'll unwillingly end up paying more fees than anticipated. Eg: 1) $0.95 payment handling fees for paying account via BPay. (Which company charges fees for receiving money via BPay?) 2) If you decide to make payment via GoMasterCard portal (user login), you can only do it once in 2-3 days, i.e. cannot pay additional money in second/third instalment until the first payment has been completely processed and goMastercard has received funds. Does it make sense? Not really. It’s more to force customer to make payments via BPay so they can charge fees or make them pay interest / fees on the outstanding payments. ) This product has attractive features but they are solely BAIT and that’s it. My recommendation don’t.

I would be weary of this card, as they now have a $0.95 Payment Handling fee every time you pay off your GoMastercard.

    Hi Robert, Latitude says that if you've paid the card off you won't be charged the servicing fee. So just make sure the direct debit is set up to pay off the card in full. Thanks Robert!

    Pauline - CreditCard.com.au

    23 August 2023
    Hi Rob, that’s a good question! If you always make your payments on time, there usually won't be any fees. So, if your outstanding balance is greater than $10 then you’ll be charged a $9.95 monthly account servicing fee.
