Key terms
- Down PaymentAn upfront payment made when purchasing a large item, typically expressed as a percentage of the total cost. Common for home purchases (usually 3-20%) and auto loans.
- Minimum PaymentThe smallest amount you must pay each month to keep the account in good standing, typically 1-3% of the balance or $25-35, whichever is greater. Paying only the minimum results in expensive long-term interest.
- Returned Payment FeeA fee charged when a payment bounces due to insufficient funds in your bank account. Typically $25-40 and may also trigger late fees and penalty APR.
- Contactless PaymentTap-to-pay technology using Near Field Communication (NFC) for quick, secure transactions. Same security as chip cards with one-time encrypted codes. Limits typically $50-250 per transaction.
