Moving Store Card Debt to Credit Card

Hello,

I have a store card debt of around £1500:o, I have paid it off before only to rack it up again.

So I want to clear it and shut it down as I am being charged about 29% interest a month.

If I open a credit card in order to clear it, does anyone know whether it can be done as a transfer or do I have to do it as a payment/purchase?

Just trying to work out which would be the best card to apply for?

Many thanks in advance
