Regardless, making this month mean something for your plastic money is time.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Here is your list of life hacks for credit cards and other secrets some companies don&#8217;t want you to know in 2023.&nbsp;<\/strong>So sit back, breathe easy, and start managing those credit cards. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"727\" src=\"https:\/\/www.beyondfinance.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/iStock-883852306-Blog-1-1024x727.jpg\" alt=\"Once you learn how to manage your credit cards effectively, they will not manage you again. \" class=\"wp-image-3840\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.beyondfinance.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/iStock-883852306-Blog-1-1024x727.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.beyondfinance.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/iStock-883852306-Blog-1-300x213.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.beyondfinance.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/iStock-883852306-Blog-1-768x545.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.beyondfinance.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/iStock-883852306-Blog-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Fees are negotiable<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, really! You may see mysterious &#8220;fees&#8221; on your credit card statements that reach 18% to 24%. Are you tired of paying them? Are you in good standing with your creditor? If so, call them. The lender could be willing to do the unthinkable, like reduce the interest rate, recommend a lower-priced card among their offerings, or even drop the annual fee.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Ignore the mail<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We have all read the clever marketing junk mail that assures you there is no need to pay more than 3% of your monthly balance. It feels good and allows you to breathe a little, but that&#8217;s what creditors and banks want you to think because they make way more money from finance charges the longer you stick around. Pay all you can each month and get on top of that wave of debt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Not-so-fixed rates<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>All credit cards are attached to an annual percentage rate or APR. Did you know a creditor or bank doesn&#8217;t have to tell you if and when your APR increases? You could miss a payment, and then, before you know it, you&#8217;re paying 24% APR instead of the 16% you signed. Sometimes, you could get a 30- or 45-day notice, but only occasionally. Keep an eye on your statements.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>And not-so-amazing grace<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the most significant advantages of credit cards over debit cards is the grace period. You don&#8217;t have to pay for whatever immediately. A &#8220;grace period&#8221; goes from the billing cycle past the due date of your bill\u2014those used to be 25 days to give you time to get to another payday. Only many banks and creditors want to reduce that grace period to 21 days or completely eliminate them. Be sure to confirm what your grace period is\u2013or isn&#8217;t\u2013on your following statement.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Two times punishment&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometimes, life isn&#8217;t fair. That is true in the world of credit cards. We&#8217;ve all been there. The holiday rush and you are doling out the credit card without thinking. Then the bills come in, and you realize you overspent your budget (again). So, you miss a payment. What harm could it do? Credit card companies punish you twice for one mistake\u2013a late fee of $35 and a hike in your APR up to 30%.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>A revolving door<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you pay minimum amounts or can&#8217;t quite go a month without spending on the credit card, you are known as a &#8220;revolver.&#8221; This term is from the credit card companies because you always carry a &#8220;revolving balance&#8221; each month. They&#8217;re grateful for you because that debt means interest and finance charges. The more you pay each month, the less they like you. But you&#8217;ll enjoy yourself much more, so there&#8217;s that.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>30 is the magic number<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This mathematical equation with credit card debt is called the &#8220;credit utilization ratio.&#8221; Essentially, this is the total available credit divided by the total amount of credit you use. Look at the limits of all your credit cards. Let&#8217;s say they equal up to $10,000. Now, look at how much you owe on all of them. If that total number is more than $3,000 (in this example), you are over the 30% ratio. Get it down because your FICO score is about to go down too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With today&#8217;s economy, we need all the help we can get to manage our credit cards.
