You can pay the balance every month, in order to avoid interest charges or you can carry a balance from one month to another, if you need to, but keep in mind that if you carry a balance beyond your grace period, interest will begin to accrue on that existing balance as well as any new purchases that you make thereafter. You will have to pay your bill in full for two consecutive months to regain your grace period and stop interest charges.
