What is CareCredit?
CareCredit is a personal line of credit for healthcare treatments and procedures for your entire family, including your pets. It works like a credit card but it has two advantages. It can only be used for healthcare services and you can get No Interest* financing every time you use it. Simply pay your minimum monthly payment and pay off the entire balance by the end of your promotional period and you pay No Interest. You can get a No Interest* payment plan if paid in full within 6 or 12 months on purchases with your CareCredit card. Interest will be charged to your account from the purchase date if the promotional balance, including optional charges, is not paid in full within 6 or 12 months or if you make a late payment. Minimum monthly payments are required. If a longer payment plan is beneficial to you, CareCredit also extends longer term financing for 24 or 36 month periods with reduced APR and fixed monthly payments required until paid in full. Purchases of $2,500 or more may be eligible for a 24 months offer at 17.9% APR, or a 36 months offer with 18.9% APR. Questions on CareCredit?

How is CareCredit different from my Visa or my MasterCard?
Save your consumer credit cards for household or unplanned expenses! Unlike your Visa or MasterCard, CareCredit is exclusive for healthcare services and you can get No Interest* financing every time you use it. If you need more time to pay for your procedure, you can take advantage of our extended payment plans with low, fixed interest rates.

I'm not sure I want another credit card. Why do I want CareCredit?
CareCredit is designed specifically for your healthcare needs and wants, but once you’ve applied you can use it repeatedly for anyone in the family including your pets. Because it is not meant for all consumer purchases you can manage your out-of-pocket medical costs more efficiently while enjoying No Interest* financing (for at least 6 months and perhaps more depending on plan) each time you use it. In addition there are no up-front costs, no pre-payment penalties, and no annual fees.

Simply make your minimum monthly payment and pay off your entire balance during the agreed upon time period, and you’ll pay no interest. Interest will be charged to your account from the purchase date if the promotional balance, including optional charges, is not paid in full within 6 or 12 months or if you make a late payment.
