There are also a few shopping malls that support the 24 th issue). Note: When staging in the mall, you need to verify the identity of the cardholder and remember to bring your ID card. Shopping malls are generally free in three stages. The rates for Stage 6 and Stage 12 vary from bank to bank.

Bill installment is the most convenient installment method, which is basically supported by all issuing banks and is simple to apply. Users only need to apply to the issuing bank for installment by phone after spending their credit cards and before sending monthly bills. However, it should be noted that banks will stipulate some special circumstances, such as speculative credit cards can not be successful in installments.

The longer the number of installments, the higher the handling fee, and the cardholder must bear it himself.
