Câu hỏi thường gặp

What's the difference between APR and interest rate?

APR includes fees and is more realistic. Nominal rate = APR without fees. APR typically higher.

How is credit card interest calculated?

Daily balance method: (balance × daily APR × days in period). APR / 365 = daily rate.

Can paying minimum balance avoid interest?

No. Interest accrues on remaining balance. Minimum payments mostly cover interest, little principal.
