Balance Computation Method: Average Daily Balance (including new purchases)
The “Daily Balance” of a Credit Plan is determined by taking the opening balance of the Credit Plan for that day, and adding 1) any new purchase made on the 
Credit Plan that day, 2) the previous day’s Interest Charges, 3) any credit insurance premiums or debt cancellation fees (if applicable) incurred on that day and 4) 
any late fees, over the credit limit fees, returned payment fees or other fees incurred on that day and subtracting any payments or credit applied to the Credit Plan 
that day. If your Account is subject to a grace period during the billing cycle, payments made during that cycle will be subtracted from all Daily Balances in the 
current cycle. 

Required Insurance, Debt Cancellation or Debt Suspension Coverage: None

Disclosure of Rates: The Daily Periodic Rate which is used to determine your Interest Charges and the corresponding Annual Percentage Rate, will be variable rates 
which may change monthly. The Daily Periodic Rate will be one-three hundred sixty fifth of the sum of the U.S. prime rate published in Money Rates table of The Wall 
Street Journal that is in effect on the last day of the month. (“Prime Rate”), plus a “Spread” of 22.74 percentage points for the Standard Rate and a “Spread” of 26.74 
percentage points for the Penalty Rate. Any changes in the Prime Rate will take effect on the first day of your billing cycle beginning in the next month.

ACCOUNT FEES AND OTHER INTEREST RATES

ABOUT YOUR APRS
Your APRs are shown on page 1. 

A Daily Periodic Rate is used to determine your Interest Charges in any billing 
cycle. To determine this rate, we divide your APR by 365; then round this 
number up to the next hundred thousandth of a percentage point. 

PROMOTIONAL CREDIT PLANS 
From time to time, we may offer one or more Promotional Credit Plans. 
These may be offered to you:
•
•

prior to your purchase; and/or
at the time of your purchase.

• 

• 

Any of these Plans may be offered at any time and are conditioned on 
your timely payment of at least the Minimum Payment Due for each 
billing statement:
a) Waived Interest Charge Credit Plan
With this Plan there are no Interest Charges on your purchase for a 
specified period. 
b) Same As Cash / Monthly Payment Credit Plan
With this Plan, there are no Interest Charges on your purchase if
you repay the full cash price of the purchase before the promotional
expiration date shown on your billing statement.
If you do not repay in full by the promotional expiration date, Interest
Charges will be imposed from the purchase date.
c) Reduced Rate Credit Plan
With this Plan, you will receive a reduced periodic rate on your purchase 
for a specified period. 
d) Special Repayment Term Credit Plan 
With this Plan special repayment terms will be applied to the purchase 
for the specified period.
e) Special Repayment Term / Reduced Rate Credit Plan
With this Plan special repayment terms and a reduced periodic rate will 
be applied to the purchase for the specified period.
Purchases that do not fall under one of these Plans are called Regular 
Credit Plan purchases. 
If you make more than one purchase on your card, these balances may 
be treated differently. 

Certain rules apply to the allocation of payments and interest charges
on your promotional purchase if you make more than one purchase on 
your Card. Call 1-888-367-4310 or review the HOW WE APPLY PAYMENTS
section of this Agreement for information.

INTEREST CHARGES

HOW INTEREST CHARGES ARE CALCULATED 
Each billing statement shows the Interest Charges, which are calculated 
separately for each:
• 
• 

 Promotional Credit Plan with a unique due date or unique terms; 
Regular Credit Plan

The total interest charge for the billing cycle is the sum of the interest charge 
for each plan subject to the minimum interest charge shown in the chart.

For Same As Cash Plans, if interest is applied, the interest is accrued 
from the transaction date of the purchase through the current cycle. The 
Interest Charge is the total of:
• 

 the applicable Daily Periodic Rate for the current cycle times the Daily 
Balance for each day in the current cycle; plus
 the applicable Daily Periodic Rate for each prior cycle times the Daily 
Balances of the Credit Plan for each day during each prior cycle.

• 

• 

add the following that were incurred on that day:
a) any new purchases
b) any previous day’s periodic Interest Charges
c)  any fees and charges, including any credit insurance premiums or 

debt cancellation fees, if these apply; then

• 

subtract any payments and/or credits.

For any Same As Cash Credit Plan:
Any credit insurance premiums or debt cancellation fees are not 
included in the Daily Balance of that Plan during the promotional period.

We also make any needed adjustments. For example:
• 

 If a transaction posts after but occurs before the start of a billing 
cycle, we may adjust the amount above to include this transaction. It 
will be included as of the first day of the billing cycle in which it posts.
 If your Account is subject to a grace period during the billing cycle, 
your payments will be subtracted from all Daily Balances in the 
current billing cycle.
 If a transaction for a returned payment or a dispute resolved in our 
favor posts after the beginning of the billing cycle, we will make this 
adjustment: 
the applicable Daily Balance(s) and any related Interest Charges will 
–
be adjusted to include the transaction amount as of the date of the 
original payment or transaction.

To calculate your Average Daily Balance, we:
• 
• 

 add the Daily Balances for each day of the billing cycle; then
divide this total by the number of days in the billing cycle.

HOW TO AVOID PAYING INTEREST ON PURCHASES 
The number of days until your Payment Due Date after the close 
of each billing cycle is indicated in the Interest Rates and Interest 
Charges section of this Agreement. We will not charge you Interest on 
purchases if you pay your entire balance by the due date each month.

Interest charges begin on the transaction date and continue to accrue 
until paid in full except as noted below:

EXCEPTIONS 
1.  For New Purchases and balances: No interest is charged in a billing 
cycle on a Regular, Reduced Rate, or Special Repayment Terms 
Credit Plans if the combined Previous Balance of those Plans at the 
beginning of the cycle is:

a) zero; or
b) a credit balance (e.g., less than zero); or
c) paid in full before the Payment Due Date that falls during the cycle;
2.  For Waived Interest Charge Credit Plans: No interest is charged for the 

promotional period.

3.  For Same As Cash Credit Plans: No interest is charged if the full cash 

sales price is paid in full before the promotion expiration date.

HOW WE APPLY PAYMENTS 
The amount of your payment that is equal to the Minimum Payment 
Due is:
• 
• 

applied as we determine within legal guidelines; and
usually applied to the minimum due on each credit plan.

Any payment amount over the Minimum Payment Due is applied to 
higher APR balances before lower ones.

If you have a Same As Cash Credit Plan(s):

•	

•	

	Until	the	final	two	complete	billing	cycles:
- 

We apply payments the same way we apply payments to a Same 
As Cash Credit Plan having a 0% APR

	During	the	final	two	complete	billing	cycles	and	up	to	the	date	of	
expiration we will apply payments received in this order:
1) To the required Minimum Payment Due; and 
2) To the plan(s) that is expiring, in the order of expiration. 

MANAGING YOUR ACCOUNT

For Plans other than Same As Cash, the interest charge is the total of:
•   the applicable Daily Periodic Rate for the Plan times the Daily Balance 

for the plan for each day in the cycle.

HOW DAILY BALANCE IS DETERMINED 
To determine your Daily Balance, we:
• 

take the opening balance for each Plan for that day; then

OTHER USERS 
You may permit others to use your Card or Account Number.
You are responsible for all charges made by permitted users.
If you wish to revoke another person’s permission to use your Account, 
you must notify us. We may close your Account and issue a new Card

If a term is found to be invalid under any applicable law, rule or 
regulation, then all other terms of this Agreement will remain valid. 

NOTICE FOR CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS: California law requires that we 
inform customers that should they fail to fulfill the terms of their credit 
obligation, a negative report reflecting on their credit record may be 
submitted to a credit reporting agency. If you are married, you may 
apply for credit in your own name. 

NOTICE FOR FLORIDA RESIDENTS: You (borrower) agree that, should we obtain a 
judgment against you, a portion of your disposable earnings may be attached or 
garnished (paid to us by your employer), as provided by Florida and Federal law.

NOTICE FOR MAINE RESIDENTS: We may request a consumer report in 
connection with your application for credit. You may ask whether a 
consumer report was obtained by us and we will tell you the name and 
address of the consumer reporting agency, if a report was obtained.

Missouri Residents: Oral agreements or commitments to loan 
money, extend credit or to forbear from enforcing repayment of 
a debt including promises to extend or renew such debt are not 
enforceable. To protect you (borrower(s)) and us (creditor) from 
misunderstanding or disappointment, any agreements we reach 
covering such matters are contained in this writing, which is the 
complete and exclusive statement of the agreement between us, 
except as we may later agree in writing to modify it.

YOUR BILLING RIGHTS: KEEP THIS DOCUMENT FOR FUTURE USE
This notice tells you about your rights and our responsibilities under 
the Fair Credit Billing Act.

What To Do If You Find A Mistake On Your Statement
If you think there is an error on your statement, write to us at:

Capital One
PO Box 5893, Carol Stream, IL 60197-5893

In your letter, give us the following information:
•
•
• 

Account information: Your name and account number.
Dollar amount: The dollar amount of the suspected error.
Description of problem: If you think there is an error on your bill, 
describe what you believe is wrong and why you believe it is a mistake.

You must contact us:
• Within 60 days after the error appeared on your statement.
• 

At least 3 business days before an automated payment is scheduled, 
if you want to stop payment on the amount you think is wrong.

You must notify us of any potential errors in writing. You may call us, 
but if you do we are not required to investigate any potential errors 
and you may have to pay the amount in question.

What Will Happen After We Receive Your Letter
When we receive your letter, we must do two things:
1.Within 30 days of receiving your letter, we must tell you that we received 
your letter. We will also tell you if we have already corrected the error.
2.Within 90 days of receiving your letter, we must either correct the 

error or explain to you why we believe the bill is correct.

•

•

While we investigate whether or not there has been an error:
• 

We cannot try to collect the amount in question, or report you as 
delinquent on that amount.
 The charge in question may remain on your statement, and we may 
continue to charge you interest on that amount.
 While you do not have to pay the amount in question, you are 
responsible for the remainder of your balance.
•
 We can apply any unpaid amount against your credit limit.
After we finish our investigation, one of two things will happen:
If we made a mistake: You will not have to pay the amount in 
• 
question or any interest or other fees related to that amount.
 If we do not believe there was a mistake: You will have to pay the 
amount in question, along with applicable interest and fees. We will 
send you a statement of the amount you owe and the date payment 
is due. We may then report you as delinquent if you do not pay the 
amount we think you owe.

•

If you receive our explanation but still believe your bill is wrong, you 
must write to us within 10 days telling us that you still refuse to pay. If 
you do so, we cannot report you as delinquent without also reporting 
that you are questioning your bill. We must tell you the name of 
anyone to whom we reported you as delinquent, and we must let those 
organizations know when the matter has been settled between us.

If we do not follow all of the rules above, you do not have to pay the 
first $50 of the amount you question even if your bill is correct.

Your Rights If You Are Dissatisfied With Your Credit Card Purchases
If you are dissatisfied with the goods or services that you have 
purchased with your credit card, and you have tried in good faith to 
correct the problem with the merchant, you may have the right not to 
pay the remaining amount due on the purchase.

To use this right, all of the following must be true:
1.You must have used your credit card for the purchase. Purchases 
made with cash advances from an ATM or with a check that 
accesses your credit card account do not qualify.
2.You must not yet have fully paid for the purchase.

If all of the criteria above are met and you are still dissatisfied with the 
purchase, contact us in writing at:

Capital One
PO Box 5893, Carol Stream, IL 60197-5893

While we investigate, the same rules apply to the disputed amount as 
discussed above. After we finish our investigation, we will tell you our 
decision. At that point, if we think you owe an amount and you do not 
pay, we may report you as delinquent.
