Frequently Asked Questions
How Do You Calculate My Balance?
We use a method called “average daily balance (including new purchases).” See Additional Disclosures below for details.
What Are My Billing Rights?
Information on your rights to dispute transactions and how to exercise those rights is provided in the below Additional Disclosures.
Am I Eligible For This Offer?
To be eligible for this offer, your annual income must be greater than your annual rent/mortgage payments and you must meet the conditions listed in the enclosed Additional Disclosures.
What Should I Put For Total Annual Income?
Enter your personal annual income from all sources (e.g., full-time, part-time or seasonal jobs, self employment, interest or dividends, retirement and public assistance).

Any balances that you transfer will receive your Transfer APR. They will be posted to the Purchase segment of your account.
Can You Change My Account Terms?
We can change the terms of your account as permitted by law. When required, we will send you notice before doing so.
If My Rate Is Increased To The Penalty Rate, Will It Ever Be Reviewed For A Possible Decrease?
Yes. Capital One will periodically review any rate increase to your account for a possible rate decrease.
How Do You Calculate My Variable Rates?
Your variable rates may change when the Prime rate changes. We calculate variable rates by adding a percentage to the Prime rate published in The Wall Street Journal on the 25th day of each month. If the Journal is not published on that day, then see the immediately preceding edition. Variable rates on the following segment(s) will be updated quarterly and will take effect on the first day of your January, April, July and October billing periods:
Purchase APR: Prime plus 10.65%, 13.65% or 17.65%;
Transfer APR: Prime plus 10.65%, 13.65% or 17.65%;
Cash Advance APR: Prime plus 21.65%;
Penalty APR: Prime plus 26.15%.

and Penalty APR is 0.08055%.

Things You Should Know About This Rewards Program
How do I earn rewards?

How does my spend bonus work?
You will earn 10,000 bonus miles if you spend at least $1,000 within 3 months of your rewards membership enrollment date. We will apply your bonus within two billing cycles of qualifying for this bonus.

Is there a limit to the amount of rewards I can earn?
There is no cap to the amount of rewards you can earn on purchases.
What happens to my rewards if I pay late?
If your account does not have late payment fees, you will not lose any rewards for making late payments. If a late fee is charged to your account, you will lose any rewards applied to your rewards balance during the billing cycle containing the fee. Please see the important disclosures to determine whether your offer includes fees for late payments.
How do I redeem my rewards for travel?
There are two ways to redeem your miles:
The number of miles you need for travel varies, and depends on the cost of the travel purchase. Here is how it works:
Simply multiply the cost of your travel purchase by 100. For example, if your travel purchase costs $200, you would multiply that by 100 to determine you need 20,000 miles to redeem.
- You can book your travel by going online to capitalone.com or contacting our Rewards Center. Or,
- You can purchase your travel anyway you choose—online, in person, or over the phone—using your No Hassle Rewards card. Then take advantage of our Purchase EraserSM for Previous Travel Purchases feature. Within 90 days from the date the travel purchase posts to the account, redeem miles online at capitalone.com or call our Rewards Center to get reimbursed for the cost of the travel purchase. Reimbursement will be in the form of a credit to the account which will be posted within 5 to 7 business days following the redemption.

Things You Should Know About This Card
How Do You Apply My Payment?
We will apply your minimum payment to pay off lower-rate balances before paying off higher-rate balances. We will apply any portion of your payment in excess of your minimum payment to higher Annual Percentage Rate balances before lower ones.
How Can I Avoid Paying Interest Charges?
Each month you pay your “New Balance” in full by the due date, you will have a minimum grace period of 25 days with no interest charge on all new 1) purchases, 2) balance transfers, 3) special purchases and 4) other charges. If you have been paying your account in full with no interest charges applied and you do not pay your next bill in full, prorated interest charges will be assessed. There is no grace period on cash advances, special transfers, or on any new transaction when there is an unpaid balance from a previous bill.
How Is The Interest Charge Applied?
Interest charges accrue from the 1) date of the transaction, 2) date the transaction is processed or 3) first calendar day of the billing period. Interest charges accrue on every unpaid amount until it is paid in full. This means you may owe interest charges even if you pay the entire “New Balance” one month, but did not do so for the previous month. Unpaid interest charges are added to the proper segment of your Account. However, we reserve the right to not assess interest charges at any time.
How Do You Calculate The Interest Charge?
For each segment of your account, we calculated your total interest charge by multiplying your average daily balance by the daily periodic rate and multiplying the result by the number of days in the billing period. Due to rounding or a minimum interest charge, this calculation may vary slightly from the interest charge actually assessed.
We determine your daily periodic rate by dividing the corresponding Annual Percentage Rates by 365 and round to the nearest 1/100,000th of 1%, not to exceed the maximum allowed by applicable law. If the daily periodic rates and corresponding Annual Percentage Rates increase, the interest charge will increase and your minimum payment may be greater.
To determine your Daily Balance for each segment: 1) take the beginning balance and add in new transactions and the periodic interest charge on the previous day’s balance. 2) Subtract any payments and credits for that segment as of that day. However, if you paid your previous month’s balance in full (or if your balance was zero or a credit amount), new transactions which post to your purchase or special purchase segments are not added to the daily balances. Also, transactions that are subject to a grace period are not added to the daily balances.
To determine your Average Daily Balance: 1) add the daily balances together and 2) divide the sum by the number of days in the billing cycle.

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.
