Pay down credit cards fasterYou can choose to employ either of these methods = pay down your highest interest rate cards first or your lowest balance credit card first.Whenever you have a big enough amount apply that to debt payment.

How to pay down credit cards faster -You may also do a balance transfer and when you do, don't forget to ask these questions:
1. Until when is the introductory rate or how long does it last?2. What is the card's annual percentage rate after that introductory rate expires?3. Does that introductory rate apply to transferred balances or just to new ones, or both?4. Does that card have an annual fee?5. Do they charge late fees and over-the-limit fees?6. Are there balance-transfer fees?

Pay down credit cards faster or settle them?You can do the settlement yourself - but you have to have the know-how. Some people buy debt reduction books and some go through credit counseling and then they do it on their own.But if you are one of those who don't have the time or the know-how, you can instead employ the services of a debt settlement company. What settlement can do for you is attempt to reduce your balance ($10,000 and above) to more or less half. That translates to a lower monthly payments too. If your accounts are 6 months delinquent or past due, and your debt amount is $10,000 -- it might be wiser to try debt settlement.

You can also pay down credit cards faster if you chose to pay more than just the minimum monthly payment that you send your creditor. As long as you have an available balance, your interest rate will also be at a higher amount.

To pay down credit cards faster you can also adopt the Dave Ramsey approach. In his debt snowball approach, you have to do whatever it takes to pay off the debt with the smallest balance first, while continuing to make minimum payments on everything else, builds momentum and allows for better leeway on the accounts with larger balances. Dave Ramsey also asserts that this approach leans towards changing people's behavior on debts and financial management, rather than solely focusing on paying everything off immediately.
