Understanding When Your Payment Is Processed

Credited Date

The credited date is the day your payment is officially applied to your account. It determines whether your payment is on time, whether you're charged a late fee, and how interest is calculated.

  • Payments received by 11:59 PM ET are credited the same day.
  • Payments received after 11:59 PM ET are credited the next business day.

Posted Date

The posted date is when your payment appears as a transaction in your account activity and is applied to your account balance. It can take up to 7 days from your payment date for it to show up in your available credit.
