Know more Know more * Stories * Decoding the credit card statement HOW TO READ YOUR CREDIT CARD STATEMENT? * Know more Know more DECODE YOUR CREDIT CARD STATEMENT Know what the different sections of your credit card statement mean and how you can benefit from them. DECODING THE CREDIT CARD STATEMENT Keeping track of your credit card details directly affects your credit score. To manage your credit better, a good understanding of the credit card statement is absolutely necessary. In the statement that is sent monthly to your inbox, you will find details of your credit card spends, repayments and fees. However, many people find reading statements quite confusing due to several complex components. To enable you to understand these better, we have listed some key features that you need to focus on when reading your credit card statement: STATEMENT PERIOD In the case of most credit card statements, the period of the report is mentioned at the top right-hand corner. Here, you can also find out the exact number and period of your credit card’s interest-free days. Interest-free days mean the allocated period of time in the billing cycle of your credit card, during which no interest is charged on the purchases. With its knowledge, it is possible to buy products using a credit card without having to pay any interest on it. DUE DATE FOR PAYMENT The due date by which you need to make at least the minimum payment is also usually mentioned at the top right-hand corner of the statement. While you are free to make the payment before the due date, failure of payment post the due date attracts a late-payment fine and interest on the outstanding amount. MINIMUM AMOUNT DUE This is the minimum amount you need to pay in the month to avoid going delinquent. Going delinquent or being late in payment can create a negative impact on your credit history, besides, depending on the duration, type and cause of delinquency, your bank may penalise you with interest on the outstanding amount as well as late payment fines The minimum amount payable could vary every month depending on your credit card purchases. It is approximately 5% of the total outstanding balance. However, this amount may vary from one bank to the other. Paying less than the minimum amount could result in fines. However, it is advised that you make payments above the minimum balance whenever possible. OVERDUE AMOUNT If you have not paid the minimum due amount for a month or more than that, then the total amount that you are liable to pay will be reflected in the ‘overdue’ section of your credit card statement. The longer the duration of the overdue account, higher will be the late fee levied. It also impacts your credit score negatively, which may affect your future credit card or loan requests. CLOSING BALANCE This is the total amount that you owe to the credit card account. If you happen to pay more than the amount that you owe, then the figure should be in negative, which means that this amount will be adjusted on your next credit card purchase. There are many advantages of paying the full amount every month which includes benefits like avoiding interest payment on the balance amount (total – minimum amount) and enjoying increased number of interest-free days for future purchases, among others. Apart from these, there are also other important sections that you should closely track. These include sections like payments/refunds, new charges, transactions, daily rates, reward points, etc. This will give you a clear idea of your overall credit card record. Standard Chartered gives you the freedom to access credit card statements dating back up to 2 years. Additionally, it also allows easy and secure online credit card payment.
