  2. It's important to use credit cards properly, so that you stay out of financial trouble, and boost your credit scores. If you don't do these things, you're risking a poor credit score, and the inability to rent an apartment, buy a house or get a new car.

  3. Limit the number of credit cards you hold. Having too many unsecured credit cards with balances can do a lot of harm to your credit. Many people think they would only be given the amount of credit that is based on their earnings, but this is not true.

  4. Pay Your Bills On Time Ensure you pay your payment by the due date to boost your credit score. Late payments involve fees and damage your credit. Establishing automatic payments through your bank can be a great way to streamline the process and generate savings.

  5. Shop around for a card. Interest rates and terms can vary widely. There are also various types of cards. There are unsecured credit cards for bad credit, secured credit cards, cards that double as telephone calling cards, cards that let you either charge and pay later or they take out that charge from your account, and store credit cards for bad credit. Carefully look at the offers and know what you need.

  6. If you can’t pay on time ... When you are unable to pay off one of your credit cards, then the best policy is to contact the credit card company. Letting it just go to collections is bad for your credit score. You will find that most companies will let you pay it off in smaller amounts, as long as you don't keep avoiding them.

  7. Consistently use your credit card You do not have to use it frequently, but you should at least be using it once a month. While the goal is to keep the balance low, it only helps your credit report if you keep the balance low, while using it consistently at the same time.

  8. Credit card use is important. It isn't hard to learn the basics of using credit cards properly, and reading this article goes a long way towards doing that. Congratulations, on having taken the first step towards getting your credit card use under control. Now you just need to start practicing the advice you just read.
