To make the most of your plan
Pay your monthly instalment amount by the due date (including any outstanding monthly instalment amount) and at least your minimum monthly payment (including any "Amount Due Immediately").
To avoid a fee
Pay your minimum monthly payment (including any "Amount Due Immediately") by the due date.

From your ‘Accounts' screen, tap on your credit card in the account list, then go to the ‘Manage’ tab to get started.
