According to Bankrate, 46% of credit card holders are currently carrying debt month-to-month due to inflation and paying for daily expenses. 50% of GenZ don’t know and don’t understand the APR linked to their debt. So what does this mean?
With no real idea of when inflation will start to go down, many young adults are relying on their credit cards to make purchases. What many of them do not understand is how carrying a balance can affect their credit score and the impacts of interest rates on their balance.
By carrying debt and not being able to pay back, people are racking up fees from the high interest rates and negatively impacting their credit scores. In a survey from Bankrate that asked which credit card feature is the best and most often used, 36% answered cash back rewards. Cashback is great, BUT, it can be more of a short-term strategy to pay down debt. Instead of thinking about immediate returns, young adults should start strategizing a plan for longer-term debt payoff, like choosing credit cards with 0 or low APR.
Enter Tomo, 0% APR/interest credit card that doesn’t require credit history. The Tomo card, also known as GenZ’s favorite credit card, has gained popularity among young adults due to its 0 APR and ability for card holders to never carry a balance. This is the perfect card in 2023 as more and more Americans are leaning on credit cards to pay off daily expenses.
It’s 2023 and you’ve finally decided to open a credit card. Congrats and welcome to the credit building family! We’re so proud of you for taking action towards your personal financial journey 🙂
TomoCredit wants to share with you 6 tips that will help you maximize your Tomo card:
1. Pay your bills on time. Luckily, the TomoCard has a weekly autopay feature that allows you to build credit with ease. No need to remember to pay your bills and risk late fees, we got you!
2. Check your credit score. The Tomo app dashboard displays your credit score as soon as you log into your account. We want to make it easy and convenient for you to understand your credit building journey.
3. Pay the full balance/keep balances low. Try not to keep a balance on your credit card and try to maintain a low or 0 balance. This will help build your credit fast and document healthy spending habits. With Tomo, you will never hold a balance, since our card triggers weekly autopay on the full balance.
4. Monitor fraud charges! Always make sure to keep an eye on your account and check frequently for any errors of fraudulent charges. The New Year typically brings in good deals for savings, requiring personal information and payment methods. Make sure that you are diligent and pay attention to where you shop and give your money to.
5. Be strategic with your credit card. For first time credit card holders, a good tip would be to use the card for one bucket, so you know exactly where your money is going and how much to expect when you spend. For example, delegating the card to use for groceries and gas only, or subscriptions like Netflix/Hulu only. This makes it easier for you to keep track of your spending while easily boosting your credit score.
6. Use your perks! Many people forget to take advantage of all the benefits and services that their credit cards offer. TomoCredit card is among many that offer great benefits for its members. Because Tomo is partnered with MasterCard, we offer World Elite Benefits, which include:
