What is CareCredit?
CareCredit is a healthcare credit card pet owners can use to pay for various veterinary services. It is especially useful in situations involving unexpected costs, such as an illness or injury. However, CareCredit can also be used to cover your pet’s routine care costs.
You can apply for CareCredit and once you’re approved, you can use your card immediately. You will first receive your card number, and the card itself will be mailed to you. One of the key features of CareCredit is the range of financing options it offers. You can choose among several interest-free or low-interest payment plans to spread out the overall cost of care. You do need to make sure you’re keeping up with your minimum monthly payments to avoid interest charges.
