How soon can I make a payment after activating the Capital One Platinum card?

You can make a payment immediately after activating your Capital One Platinum card. The easiest way you can make a Capital One Platinum payment is online, or by calling the number on the back of your card. Alternatively, you can do it in person, or by mail.

Here’s how you can make a Capital One Platinum payment:

• Online: Log in to your account on capitalone.com or the Capital One mobile app, then go to the “Accounts Summary” page and click on the Capital One Platinum followed by “Pay Bill.”
• By phone: If you decide to pay your Capital One Platinum by phone, call the number on the back of your card.
• In person: And if you’d like to make a Capital One Platinum payment in person, there are several ways you can do so. You can go to a Capital One branch and pay there. Or, you can pay at Western Union or MoneyGram, but you’ll need to have your credit card number on hand to complete the transaction.
• By mail: To pay by mail, send a check or money order to:
