Legal analysis: law. The credit card cancels the late payment fee, and only charges the unpaid borrower a penalty. Most banks set the liquidated damages at 5% of the outstanding minimum repayment amount, and it is a one-time charge, with an upper limit and no compound interest. Because the liquidated damages mainly involve civil liability, the cardholder and the bank can negotiate the charging standard, so the credit card liquidated damages are legal.

Legal basis: Civil Code of People's Republic of China (PRC).
