Is it bad to pay off your credit card multiple times a month?

Question

I just got a card like a month ago and I have put small things on it and have 60 balance. I paid off 30 twice and now I will be adding a pair of boots for 100 but paying it of in multiple payments also.

Answer

Not bad but I heard from multiple sources that theres a sweet spot between when they count what you've spent and when you need to pay your bill. If you pay it off too much, then it could look like you're "borrowing" only a small amount or nothing. What builds your credit is them seeing you're spending a good amount and keeping up with your payments. However i believe paying it frequently will not hurt your score.

Answer

The best thing to do is to spend 30%-40% of your credit balance each month (my limit is $1000 so that's $300-$400 I use on the credit card each month) and to pay that balance off in full each month before the due date.
I can never remember when that is so I have been just paying off the balance every payday (every 2 weeks), and it's been helping my credit climb up steadily the past two years. I went from low 600s to a comfortable very high 700s score without having to acquire any other sort of "positive debt".

Answer

No it’s not bad at all.
