Why go for a credit card?

The free KBC Brussels Credit Card gives you the freedom and convenience to make payments and withdraw cash anywhere in the world. Moreover, what you spend during the month is not debited from your account right away, but instead at the beginning of the following month.

The KBC Brussels Credit Card is in fact a card that you can customise to suit your personal needs. You can, for instance:

  • Set your own limit
  • Spread your repayments if you wish
  • Choose from a range of optional, fee-based insurance packages and service packages that ensure maximum convenience

You can choose from these optional packages:

Not only that, you also get two years' extra warranty on top of the statutory two-year period.

The KBC Brussels Credit Card comes free with the KBC Brussels Plus Account.

Choose the maximum amount you may spend per month (for example, when you’re on holiday), provided the limit has been approved first.

  • Pay conveniently at merchants worldwide using the Mastercard network.
  • Shop online with ease on your smartphone or desktop no matter where you are (whether you’re shopping online, booking a holiday, reserving tickets or taking out a subscription, pay in a flash with your KBC Brussels Credit Card).
  • Withdraw cash at ATMs worldwide.

Generally speaking, what you put on your credit card is usually deducted from your account in one go the following month. If you prefer to spread your repayments over several months, you can link a KBC Brussels Flex Budget facility to your KBC Brussels Credit Card. This is an extra cash reserve which you pay back at your own pace. When you use it, you only pay interest on the amount outstanding.

KBC Bank has taken out Travel Package insurance with KBC Insurance. You are only entitled to compensation if you were already signed up to this insurance at the time of booking and paying for the travel or rental vehicle in the relevant contract and you were still covered by the insurance at the time of the claim event. You therefore must hold an active credit card and still be signed up to this Travel Package without interruption.

KBC Bank has taken out Shopping Package insurance with KBC Insurance. You are only insured if you were holding an active credit card and were still signed up to the package without interruption from the time the purchase was made until the claim event occurred.

The insurance ends by operation of law when the contract between KBC Bank NV and the insurer is terminated. 

Credit card holders can sign up to the Shopping Package or the Travel Package at any time. Insurance cover starts on the first hour of the day following membership and lasts for a period of at least one year. After this period, you can withdraw from the insurance at any time by going through the digital process in KBC Brussels Mobile or by having its cancellation registered at a KBC Bank branch. 

The conditions of cover are available from any KBC Brussels branch or at www.kbc.be/en/creditcard. The applicable general conditions alone determine your right to compensation from the insurer.  The complete list of exclusions can be found in the general conditions.
