Barclaycard announces Travis Perkins, Toolstation credit card launch

Barclaycard is partnering with the Travis Perkins Group to launch a new range of co-branded business credit cards. Roll-out kicks off with Travis Perkins and Toolstation this month.

These no-fee cards will provide customers with an extended interest-free credit period of up to 116 days for all purchases. Customers will also benefit from up to 56 days’ interest-free credit on purchases made at other participating retailers.

Paul Tallentire, CEO at Travis Perkins General Merchanting Division, says: “Managing cash flow is one of the biggest challenges for the trade. With this exciting new credit card built for the trade, Travis Perkins will make it easier for our customers to keep doing what they do best - building.”

John Meaden, Marketing Director at Toolstation, adds: “Our successful growth as a business has been built on listening to our customers and providing them with the products, prices and services they need, in the right place at the right time. Our trade customers told us they wanted interest-free credit facilities, and our partnership with Barclaycard is our response. We are confident the cards will prove very popular, offering another great reason to shop at Toolstation.”
