Open End Credit

Open end credit refers to a revolving line of credit extended to customers by banks and other lenders. This may take the form of a credit card account where the available credit is replenished each time the balance is repaid. Customers can pay a minimum balance each month, avoiding fees but accumulating interest charges on the balance, or they may pay the balance in full and avoid interest charges.
