It should have a positive effect on your credit report and score. |

It does not affect your credit score however you would not be what a bank would call a good customer.
Banks make money by charging you interest. So they are not making money from you. |

It will not do anything to your credit. If you are trying to raise your credit score you can not pay it in full each month. In order to build your credit you need to leave a small balance on your credit cards each month. Its the only way that they can tell you are actually using your credit cards. If you pay them in full each month your credit report will show your credit limit and then a zero balance. Looks like you never used it.
I have been in the mortgage industry for over 15 years and definitely know how to read credit reports and know how to help raise credit scores. |

Don't even think about it
 |
every month shows on your credit report. every payment. how could you misunderstand "paid on time"? as a negative |

Paying it off in full will raise your credit score slightly, and of course remove the risk of running up debt due to interest rates, etc.
As was said before, leaving a small balance is a better idea if you want to raise your credit score. Credit issuers like to see you pay back a debt over a couple months compared to paying it all off at one time. It gives them a chance to see how you handle monthly payments, and of course, gives them a chance to charge you fees if you dont make the payment. By paying off your balance in full every month credit issuers dont get to see how you handle debt and monthly payments.
Also, Capitol One is notorious for not reporting credit on time or for several months at a time. If at all possible try building your credit with someone who has a better track record in terms of reporting credit.

Credit scores based debt-to-credit ratio. Just because you pay off one credit card doesn't mean you don't have debt with other cards. If you want a good credit score your debt-to-credit ratio needs to below usually 40%. Paying in full doesn't really do anything. Sometimes if you pay in full before a certain time you pay without interest which is good but that's about it. |

If you pay your card before the due date, it can only improve your credit rating. |

It will have no negative impact if you pay your balance in full. However, oddly enough it won't have any more of a positive effect than paying the minimum payment, either. |

Paying before it's due is fine. You should see "high balance" on your credit report, so long as that number is correct your usage of the card is being reported.
Also, for the purposes of calculating your total amount of credit and your usage ratio, your credit limit that CO is not reporting is replaced by your high balance. If you've never maxed out your card, it's not a bad idea to take a cash advance and pay it the next month so that your limit is properly reported.
(If you go over your limit and it doesn't get rejected, that'll be your new "credit limit" but that's not an advisable way to play the game because of fees and probably higher interest rates.) |

Small steps like paying your bills on time and using only part of the credit available to you. Also use your credit cards for making small payments regularly, so that it is reflected in your credit record. More tips available at http://www.acreditlibrary.com/buildcredit.html |

This unfortunately is not helping your credit although you would think that it would. The best way to increase your credit score the fastest is to keep your balance at least half of the maximum that is owed for at least 3 months and you will see a drastic increase in your credit score. |
