Frequently Asked Questions
How is the minimum monthly payment calculated?
The minimum payment due each month is normally the greater of $10, 2.25% of your New Balance, OR 1.00% of your New Balance plus the finance charges assessed for that billing cycle. We may also include past due amounts, any newly accrued fees and charges, and amounts in excess of the Credit Limit. If the New Balance is less than $10, you pay only the balance.
