(1) Repay in time. After using credit card for overdrafts, you must pay in full before the repayment date set by the bank. Otherwise, it will affect your personal credit.
(2) Full safety. Be careful not to leak credit card information to others, especially credit card numbers, expiration dates, and verification codes. Criminals can use these credits to complete online payments. Contact the card-issuing bank to report the loss immediately.
(3) Careful reconciliation. The card-issuing bank will send a monthly statement to the cardholder.

The standard for the over-limit fee is generally 5% of the over-credit line portion. Therefore, college students must avoid overdrafts when using credit cards.

Otherwise, the use of credit cards will also cause yourself some unnecessary trouble. For example: the amount of repayment is not enough, the extra cost caused by forgetting the repayment time.
