Reply to comment by jlc203 in Should I pay late or pay what I can? by cvheuvel

OP has $2000 and the minimum is $40. No late fee incurred. Interest yes, late fee no.

Ah, read too quickly. It sounded like op would hold off until they could pay the whole 4K but it would make more sense to pay at least the min

No, you are correct, I will pay the full $4000, but a few days late. I have $2000 to pay them on the due date.

Previous poster was correct. Pay at least the minimum wage to avoid a late fee entirely, but there might be some interest. Other people are saying pay as much as you can as fast as you can, which is also good advice

I am also wondering if I will be paying interest on the full $8000?

No, you'd pay interest on the balance every day until you pay it off.
