The name 'Morgan Stanley credit cards' is used mainly in the United Kingdom. In the USA, they are now known as Discover credit cards. The company now has only the two Morgan Stanley credit cards as listed below:
? Morgan Stanley Buy and Fly MasterCard
This card awards points for each purchase of Ten Pounds and over. These points are redeemable on eighteen of the world's top airlines, such as, American Airlines, Delta, Air France and Air Canada.
The Buy and Fly MasterCard also offers 0% APR on purchases for the first six months. This means that you pay absolutely no interest on items purchased during this introductory period.
An introductory 0% APR on balance transfers for six months is also one of the selling points of this card, especially if amassing travel points is your primary aim. However, there is a two percent handling fee on each transfer. The standard balance transfer APR is 17.9% after the first six months.
Added bonuses are no annual fees and the fifty-five day no interest grace period.
Applicants who apply online can expect an instant decision on their application.
