Frequently Asked Questions

What happens if my payment is too low?

If your monthly payment is less than or equal to the monthly interest charge, you will never pay off the balance — it will actually grow over time. Always pay more than the minimum interest charge.

What is the minimum payment trap?

Credit card minimum payments are typically 1-3% of the balance. Paying only the minimum on a $5,000 balance at 20% APR could take 20+ years and cost thousands in interest.

What is the avalanche method?

Pay minimums on all cards, then put all extra money toward the card with the highest APR. This minimizes total interest paid. The snowball method (lowest balance first) provides psychological wins but costs more interest.
