Transaction Fees

Annual Fee: You may find some credit card options which charge yearly fees, but not all of them do. The types of credit cards which typically have yearly fees include premium credit cards, subprime credit cards, and secured credit cards. The fee amount charged per year will vary. Some fees start at $0 and go up to $500. It all depends on which type of credit card you apply for.

Regular Purchase APR: When you make a standard purchase with your credit card, the amount charged gets added to your revolving debt balance. On top of that, there is a certain amount of interest which gets added to this balance too. This interest is called the annual percentage rate, or APR. Your credit rating greatly influences your APR, which is why the percentage fluctuates regularly. People with perfect credit may only have to pay 10% APR while people with terrible credit pay up to 35% APR. For this reason, it is important to review all the terms and conditions on your credit card application prior to signing it. Make sure you know the true APR after the initial trial period expires. Sometimes these credit card companies will try to lure you in with 0% APR for 12 months, but they won’t tell you what the APR is after those 12 months. You must look for it in the fine print.

Intro Purchase APR: When you see a credit card plan which offers an introductory purchase APR of 0%, this doesn’t necessarily mean it’s a trick. Sometimes you’ll find some good low-interest credit card plans which charge 0% APR for the first 6 months, 12 months, or sometimes even longer. This means that all your credit card purchases within this time period won’t have interest charges added onto the debt balance. However, once the introductory period expires, the standard purchase APR will then apply. Again, check the terms and conditions to see what this APR is.

Balance Transfer Fee: If you owe money on multiple loans or credit cards, you can clear this debt by moving it to another credit card which has more available credit. This is basically a way to consolidate your debt so that you only owe money on one account instead of several accounts. However, whenever you transfer your debt balances to another account, you must pay a balance transfer fee of anywhere between 3% and 5% of the total transferred debt amount. For instance, if you owe a total of $10,000 on all your loan and credit card accounts, a 5% balance transfer fee on this amount would cost you $500.

Regular Balance Transfer APR: Sometimes a credit card company will offer a regular balance transfer APR to new credit card account holders instead of a balance transfer fee. This balance transfer APR is usually a generous deal which ranges from 0% to a very low APR. However, this low balance transfer APR is only available for a limited introductory time period. This could last for 6 months, 12 months, or longer. Once the introductory period is over, the normal rates apply.

Cash Advance Fee: If you want to take out a cash advance on your credit card, you will either be charged 3% to 5% on the transaction amount or a fixed fee of between $5 and $15 per transaction. The greater amount of the two is the one you will pay. For instance, if you take a $200 cash advance on a credit card which charges a cash advance fee of 10% or $5, you will end up paying 10% because that is the greater amount. In this case, the cash advance fee is $40.
