What is a Penalty APR and how does it work?

A Penalty APR is a higher APR that may apply to your account if we do not receive the total minimum payment due on your account by the payment due date two or more times during any 12 consecutive billing cycles. Once the penalty APR is applied, your APRs will increase and may apply to all new transactions. Your account will be reviewed over time to determine if a lower APR is appropriate.

When is interest charged on my account?

The type of transaction you make determines when interest is charged on your account.

If you make a purchase, generally we charge interest from the day you make the purchase until you pay it in full.

  • You can avoid interest on new purchases (except some promotional purchases) if you have no balance at the start of your billing cycle or you pay your balance in full each month.
  • If you did not pay your balance in full in the prior billing cycle, interest will be calculated on your balance from the first day of the current billing cycle until we receive your payment in full, even if you pay your balance in full and on time and make no new charges in the current billing cycle. This interest, plus interest on that interest, will be reflected on your next billing statement.

If your account allows you to make a balance transfer or cash advance, we charge interest from the day you make this type of transaction until you pay that balance in full. You cannot avoid interest on these types of transactions or their related fees.
