Frequently asked questions
How can I pay off credit card debt faster?
Pay a fixed amount above the minimum every month, target the highest-APR card first, and consider a 0% intro-APR balance transfer to pause interest while you pay down the balance.
Is a balance transfer worth it?
Usually yes if your APR is high and you can clear most of the balance during the 0% window — the transfer fee (3–5%) is far less than a year of 20%+ interest. The balance-transfer calculator nets it out for you.
