If you pay the statement in full, the annual fee and grace period matter more than APR. If you carry a balance, interest and APR become central. Cash withdrawals follow a separate fee schedule.
We do not call a card the cheapest by comparing representative examples built on different limits and periods. Missing fields stay under review until a current document is found.

Before choosing a card, decide whether you will pay it in full or carry a balance. The same offer may fit one case and be expensive in the other.
A credit card gives you a credit limit you can use anytime, with a grace period during which you pay no interest if you repay in full.
Some cards offer cashback or discounts at partner merchants.
Compare the grace period, annual fees and benefits (cashback, interest-free installments) against your usual purchases and the amount you can repay each month.
The credit card mechanism is easy to describe and hard to read in an 11-page contract. The bank gives you a limit — say 8,500 lei.
You use as much as you want, anytime, without explanation.
At the end of the billing cycle (usually monthly), you get a statement and two options: pay the full balance by the due date (21 to 56 days after cycle close, the grace period) and pay no interest, or pay only the minimum (typically 5-10%) with revolving interest on the rest.
When you pay only the minimum, part of the balance may continue to accrue interest. The cost depends on the contractual interest rate, fees, payment dates and any new purchases.
APR alone does not determine the first year’s interest in lei. Ask the issuer for a calculation based on your balance and compare minimum payments with a larger monthly repayment.
Interest-free installments at partner merchants (3, 6, 12 months) are real — but the installments come out of your card limit, reducing available credit for other purchases.
On Credit Bureau scoring, use below 30% of the limit is considered healthy; above 70% starts hurting your evaluation when you apply for another loan.
Paying on time is, as always, the heaviest factor.
The interval in which you pay no interest if you repay the spent amount in full. Usually up to 50–56 days.
No, if you repay in full within the grace period. Interest applies only to outstanding amounts.
Responsible use helps your score; late payments can hurt it.
