If you don't pay at least the minimum payment on your credit cards by the due date, you will be considered a month behind and so on till you are up to date with your monthly payment(s).
You'll also be charged interest and with most credit cards, interest is charged daily from date of when you purchased your item and not by the statement billing date. That is why it is important to make a payment asap, than to wait till the due date.
ie) if you make a payment even one day after your due date your charged interest.
if you purchased an item on Aug 29 and your billing date is sept 1 and your due date is sept 22 and you miss your payment on the due date.
interest will be calculated daily from aug 29 till full payment is received
if you pay the full payment (including interest) on sept 23 your interest will be less than, if you pay your full payment (including interest) on the next due date of oct 22.
