What is APR?
APR, or annual percentage rate, is the price tag that you are charged for borrowing someone else’s money. However, APR is not charged once a year. Rather, it is divided into a daily interest amount. Carrying a balance for a month? You’ve been charged interest 30+ times. Every single day, money is owed and interest is added to your credit card balance.
