I've been 100% on-time with my credit card payments since getting my first one a while ago. Now I'm thinking of getting a second one with actual rewards, since my first one was just to build my score and give me some history.

I've never missed a payment, so does APR matter?

It's interest on unpaid balances/expenses you incur before due date; missed payments just add onto the balance that will be affected by the interest rate

So as long as my balance is at $0 by the monthly due date, APR won't affect anything?
