The minimum repayment amount refers to the minimum amount of the current bill repayment before the last repayment date, no late fees will be charged, no active application is required and credit information will not be affected, but the consumption on the bill is not exempt from interest. All consumption in the current period starts from the accounting date, and is charged at five ten thousandths of the daily interest rate (repayment in full on time, credit card consumption can enjoy the interest-free period).
Minimum repayment amount = monthly outstanding balance of this month × 10% (standard card is 5%) + outstanding minimum repayment amount of the previous period, and there is a minimum repayment limit.

1. Don't use "minimum repayment amount" lightly
Many cardholders who are new to credit card statements for the first time do not understand why they are tied to the current arrears, and there is a column called "Minimum Repayment Amount". In fact, the "minimum repayment amount" is for those who are unable to fully repay the credit card. Once you repay according to the minimum repayment amount, you will also use the "revolving credit" of the credit card. The bank will Interest is levied from the accounting date. But on the statement, we don't see relevant reminders.
For example, Article 30 of a bank's credit card regulations clearly stipulates that "cardholders who choose the repayment method with the minimum repayment amount or use the card beyond the credit limit approved by the card issuer will no longer enjoy interest-free repayment period treatment and should pay Part of the repayment is overdraft interest calculated at the prescribed interest rate from the bank's bookkeeping date. Cardholders who receive cash do not enjoy the interest-free repayment period and minimum repayment treatment, and should pay overdraft interest at the prescribed interest rate from the bank's bookkeeping date. . "
2. Credit lines are often kept in mind
The more routine these routines are, the easier it is to fall into misunderstandings. In fact, if you carefully study the above clauses, some people may find that another point, "when using the card beyond the credit limit approved by the card issuer", does not enjoy interest-free treatment. This requires us to pay attention to another project-credit line.
In the top left corner of your credit card statement, there are usually columns that tell you how much credit you have. The so-called credit limit is the total amount of credit card holders allowed to overdraft. Often the common misunderstanding is that you forget your credit limit. It s okay to use a small amount of credit. If you accidentally exceed it, you will not only be able to enjoy interest-free treatment, but you will also be charged an over-limit fee.
An effective suggestion is to consult the credit card service hotline when you are not sure how much you have available, so as not to exceed the limit!
3. Don't move as much as you want in advance
In the upper left corner of the credit card statement, immediately after the credit limit, there is usually a "pre-borrowed cash limit" item, which means that the bank authorizes you to withdraw cash from the ATM, which is generally 20% of your credit limit. ~ 50% and included in your credit line.
Some people may ask, does this mean that I can withdraw money from my credit card to pay various fees, and even use it for investment, and also enjoy interest-free treatment?
No. Although every credit card will have a cash advance, it is often considered irrational to withdraw cash from a credit card. Because you have to face the following reality: First, you have to pay the "cash advance fee", which is what we usually call "cash withdrawal fee". Each bank has different regulations on this, for example, Industrial Bank stipulates that " "According to the amount of 3%, each minimum of 30 yuan or USD3 yuan", generally more withdrawals abroad; the second is that cash advances do not enjoy interest-free repayment period benefits, starting from the day you withdraw, you need to pay annual interest 18% interest rate.
