How do credit cards work?

Credit cards work by lending you up to a maximum amount known as a credit limit. Your credit limit is personalised to your circumstances and it could even grow over time if you manage your account well.

Whether you need to make payments online, at the shops, or in your favourite restaurant, a credit card offers a flexible way to borrow money as and when you need it.

If you only use your account for purchases and you pay back what you borrow in full each month, you usually won’t pay interest. Or if you prefer, you can carry forward your balance and pay interest each month. Bear in mind that you must still pay at least your minimum monthly payment - and more when you’re able to. Here’s more on how credit cards work.
