An APR is an annual percentage rate, or interest rate, that represents the cost of credit. This is the rate with which your finance charges are calculated. Usually, credit cards come with multiple APR’s (purchases, balance transfers, cash advances, default/penalty, etc.). APR’s can be fixed or variable, with variable-rate APR’s tied to the Prime Rate published in the Wall Street Journal.
