February, a month for chocolates, love, and credit cards

By  Leila Pentsil

As the month of love unfolds, chocolates and romantic gestures take center stage especially as this year’s valentine’s day falls on a Saturday. After the One Hundred and Eighty-Five Days (185 days) of January, February is a great time to talk about something else that’s often associated with love – spending!

For obvious reasons, the lure of staycations, romantic dinners, gifts, flowers etc. is heightened in this month and credit cards are having a moment. Whether you’re planning a romantic getaway, booking a cozy dinner, or simply treating yourself to some well-deserved self-love, credit cards offer a convenient and rewarding way to pay.

Make a Move, Get a VISA Credit Card from Bank of Africa

In addition to all the above, a BOA Credit Card would not only offer you flexible payment terms but also present you with multiple payment channels including Account to Account transfer at all Bank of Africa ATMs and the Direct Debit feature saves you from interest charges, should you forget to pay your minimum amount due.

This February and beyond, make the most of your Bank of Africa credit card. Whether it’s chocolates, a romantic dinner, or a quick getaway, use it to make your moments sweeter.
