Wells Fargo Reflect® Card review

Twenty-one months without interest on purchases and qualifying transfers, and no rewards at all. This card is hired for one job.

The verdict

If your goal is to stop paying interest, the length of this window is the whole argument. Someone carrying $6,000 at 24% pays roughly $1,400 in interest over a year, and no cash back card comes close to offsetting that. Once the balance is gone, though, the Reflect earns nothing and most people move their spending elsewhere.Jump to:The full review

The full review

The Reflect gives you 0% intro APR for 21 months from account opening, covering both new purchases and qualifying balance transfers. After that window a variable APR of 17.49%, 23.99% or 28.24% applies to whatever is left.

Do the math before you transfer. Moving a $5,250 balance costs about $262 in fees at 5%, which brings the total to roughly $5,512. Paying about $263 a month clears it inside the window with no interest at all.

Two details trip people up: the clock starts the day the account opens, and transfers only qualify if they post within the first 120 days. There are no rewards here, which is deliberate. Cards with the longest interest-free windows rarely pay cash back too.
