Balance Transfer Question..

Hi everyone! My question is this: I want to transfer a balance from a purchase that i just made on my CSP to my Merrill+ card to take advantage of the 0% interest on balance transfers completed by March 14th. I just purchased the planes tickets on my CSP, do i need to wait for that transaction to post or can i go ahead and initiate a balance transfer onto my Merrill+ card? Thank you!!

+1. Agreed. By the time they send the payment the charge will have posted and be paid.

Thank you for the responses! Do you think i will recieve the points from my CSP even though the balance is transferred?

Yes, transfering a balance off the card does not cancel out the rewards you may earn.
