How Credit Card Loans Work

A credit card loan is a type of revolving credit that allows you to borrow money up to your credit limit. When you use a credit card for a purchase, you're essentially borrowing money from the card issuer, which you'll need to repay with interest.

The interest rate on a credit card loan is typically higher than other types of loans, so it's important to only borrow what you can afford to repay. The interest rate is calculated based on your credit score and other factors.

When you take out a credit card loan, you'll receive a statement showing your balance, minimum payment, and due date. It's important to pay at least the minimum amount due each month to avoid late fees and damage to your credit score.

Worked Example

Let's say you need to borrow $5,000 for 24 months at an APR of 18%. Here's how the calculation works:

Using the formula:

Over 24 months, you'll pay a total of $5,580, with $580 in interest.
