Bushy Tail Rewards Card is rewards credit card in the Credit cards range, used for a bigger reward on everyday spending that is always repaid in full. Its live rate card, summary and worked tables sit above this text and update whenever the product record changes.
Keep the cost in the same picture as the rate
A fee can reduce the benefit of interest, growth or cashback, and borrowing interest can exceed a reward. The table distinguishes ongoing charges from an upfront fee. Do not subtract a fee twice: the mortgage total already includes its arrangement fee, while its yearly repayment rows contain repayments only.
The worked examples show the product-specific calculations and timing assumptions in full.

What the example does not promise
All figures are invented and shown to make the demo useful to read and crawl. No money is held, no application is available, and no deposit-protection, regulatory or tax-wrapper status is claimed. Calculations do not account for personal tax, inflation or unstated changes in rates. The fictional bank manager can guarantee only that the next paragraph contains no real acorns.
