Balance transfers
You could pay less interest by transferring balances from other higher-rate credit cards to a Wells Fargo credit card. You might also be able to lower your overall monthly payments and turn multiple bills into one easy payment. Balance transfer fees may apply.
A balance transfer can give you the flexibility to:
- Pay off another credit card or tax bill
- Fund large expenses, such as home improvements
- Cover emergencies and other unplanned expenses
- Pay an individual
If you already have a Wells Fargo credit card, sign on to the Wells Fargo Credit Card Service Center and select Request Balance Transfer to see if you have an offer.
If you don’t have a Wells Fargo credit card yet, learn more about all our credit card products and you can request to transfer a balance when you apply. All credit cards are subject to credit qualification.

Overdraft Protection
Help protect yourself against unexpected overdrafts and bounced checks by linking your Wells Fargo credit card to your Wells Fargo checking account.

Overdraft Protection is an optional service we provide. For the service to take effect you will need to enroll. You're only charged for Overdraft Protection when you use it.
To sign up for Overdraft Protection, you’ll need a Wells Fargo credit card and a Wells Fargo checking account. Already have both? Sign on to the Wells Fargo Credit Card Service Center and select Overdraft Protection.
