SMART CREDIT CARD MANAGEMENT

Use credit cards wisely to build your credit and avoid costly debt.

  • Pay your full balance each month and maintain a credit utilization ratio below 30%
  • Set up payment reminders or automatic minimum payments to make sure you never miss a due date
  • Review your statements each month for unauthorized charges or errors
  • Avoid opening multiple new credit cards in a short period of time, this can be a red flag to lenders
  • Use credit cards strategically for purchases you have budgeted for, not as an extension of your income
