    No, but you probably don't earn enough to be able to spend enough for them to think it's worthwhile to give you the cashback

    Eligibility

    To save time before applying for your Platinum Cashback Credit Card, it’s best to make sure you can say yes to the following.
    • I am aged 18 or over
    • I have a current UK bank or building society account
    • I have a permanent UK home address
    • I have a household income of at least £20,000
    • I have no history of bad debt
    • And if self-employed, I have been working for more than one year
    Apply now with our secure application form.

    If you can say yes, go ahead. Your application takes less than 10 minutes and we may be able to give you a response in less than 60 seconds – so apply now.


    Obviously, I put in something £30,000+.
    They did take 10 days before approving, so they must have done some extra checking.
