SoFi Essential Credit Card Terms & Conditions

We use the "daily balance" method, including new transactions, to calculate the daily balance on which we will charge interest.

Your Daily Periodic Rate(s) and corresponding Annual Percentage Rate(s) will change if the Prime Rate changes. If the Daily Periodic Rate(s) and corresponding Annual Percentage Rate(s) increase, your interest charges will increase, and your minimum payment will be greater. Complete details regarding how the variable rate is determined are set forth in the Cardholder Agreement.

We decide how to apply your payment, up to the minimum payment, to the balances on your account. We may apply the minimum payment first to interest charges, then to the balances with the lowest APR and then to Balances with higher APRs.

If you pay more than the Minimum Payment, we’ll apply the amount over the Minimum Payment first to the Balance with the highest APR, then to the Balance with the next highest APR, and so on, except as otherwise required by applicable law.
