Benefits of minimum repayment:
Reducing the burden of repayment. Generally, the minimum repayment amount is 10% of the current bill. For people whose credit card bills are tens of thousands a month, the repayment pressure instantly becomes thousands a month, which is still acceptable to most people.

Disadvantages of paying only the minimum repayment amount:

Over time, it will cause a relatively large interest burden, so it is not recommended.
Stimulate overconsumption. Because the minimum repayment amount will give people a feeling of no repayment pressure. They only need to repay a few hundred yuan every month. In fact, there are thousands of yuan in bills. Over time, the monthly overdraft amount will become more and more, and eventually it will become unbearable. Start repayment.
Not conducive to loans. If the credit card only pays the minimum repayment amount, on the one hand, it is not repaid in full and on time, and on the other hand, the bank will also consider the user's income and repayment ability to be limited, which is not conducive to subsequent bank loan applications.
