The festive season is a time of joy, celebration and, of course, spending. While it’s easy to get caught up in the excitement of shopping for gifts and attending events, it’s important to safeguard yourself from any unsavoury financial situations. This is where overlimit protection on your credit card can help.

Read on to know how this often-overlooked feature can offer you the stability you need during critical times.

What is the overlimit feature on your credit card?
 

The overlimit facility is a valuable option offered by many credit card issuers, including Metra Trust. It allows you to temporarily exceed your credit limit, usually up to a certain amount. This feature serves as a vital buffer in situations where your expenses exceed your available credit. As a result, you can avoid financial stress if unexpected expenses arise.

Peace of mind in emergencies
 

Life is full of surprises, whether it's a sudden medical expense, a car repair, or unexpected charges you didn't account for. In such critical times, having the overlimit feature enabled on your credit card can be a blessing. Instead of facing declined transactions or resorting to high-interest loans, you can use the feature to cover the necessary expenses and preserve your financial well-being.

You can use overlimit protection to make essential purchases or payments, even if they exceed your credit limit temporarily. This is particularly useful if you need to take advantage of time-limited opportunities or face unexpected expenses. Utilizing this feature wisely allows you to stay on top of your finances and avoid being caught off guard.

How to enable overlimit protection on your Metra Trust Credit Card

1. Login to your Metra Trust mobile app or netbanking account

2. Select your credit card in the Credit Cards section

3. Switch on the Enable Over Limit Facility option

To fully benefit from the overlimit facility, it's essential to understand the terms and conditions set by your credit card provider. Metra Trust allows a maximum 10% overlimit for a fee of Rs. 500 or 2.5% of the overlimit amount, whichever is higher. However, opting-in for overlimit protection is free of cost.

Conclusion
 

In conclusion, the overlimit facility can be a valuable solution for those seeking financial wellbeing. It offers peace of mind knowing that your credit card has your back when unexpected expenses arise. When utilized responsibly and in accordance with your credit card terms, this feature can offer the financial confidence of having more purchasing power, while staying mindful of your budget.
