How to Repay Your
Credit Card Debt
2
3 Great Strategies for Credit Cardholders
  • In the paragraphs below, we have enumerated
    strategies that you can use to gradually pay down
    your credit card charges for you to eventually
    free yourself from all forms of debt.

3
Pay off the balance on the cards that carry the
highest rates of interest.
  • Do you think you pay way too much cash on your
    interest charges, especially because your
    guaranteed approval store credit cards carry high
    APRs? If you do then, theres a simple solution
    to your problem. That is, to pay first the
    balance on the credit card that imposes the
    highest interest rate.
  • To do this, you need to review the rates of
    interest imposed on the lines of credit you
    currently have. Take out the fine print of your
    card programs and determine what the APR is for
    each credit card. Then, make a priority list as
    to which credit card you need to pay off first,
    based on their interest rates. In so doing, you
    can generate huge savings on the payments you
    make on interest charges. More importantly, you
    can allocate such savings to settle your other
    credit card bills, so that it will be easier for
    you to juggle your credit payments with your
    personal or household expenses.

Settle the charges on the line of credit that has
the lowest balance.
  • You can also benefit from paying first the credit
    card that has the lowest balance and eventually
    moving your way up your list. This way, it will
    be easier for you to reduce the number of your
    open credit accounts. And you can concentrate
    your efforts to pay off your huge credit card
    bills, later on.
  • The only downside to this strategy is that you
    might be incurring huge interest charges on your
    credit card balance. So, try to consider first
    the APR as well as the other charges that might
    apply to your card programs. Then, try to
    consider if this strategy will be suitable to
    your situation, before you decide to use it.

5
Come up with a new budget plan.
  • Do you find it difficult to juggle your credit
    card bills with your personal or household
    expenses? If you do then, you might need to
    re-think your budget plan. After all, there could
    still be rooms for improvement with how you
    manage your personal finances.
  • For instance, ask yourself these questions How
    much do I spend each month? Do I spend cash only
    on necessary and important commodities? How much
    of my salary goes to products and services that I
    can live without? Can I curb my spending habits
    to set aside more funds to cover my credit card
    bills?
  • Keep in mind that the answers to these questions
    will help you draw up a new budget that will be
    in synch with your guaranteed approval store
    credit cards debt repayment plan. That way, it
    will be easier for you to pay off your credit
    card debts. And in time, you can reap the
    benefits of having a good credit standing.
