Cards are no more a luxury, they are almost a necessity. So, you would imagine a large amount of people going for mastercards. In fact, plenty of people posses more than one credit cards. So, the card industry is growing by big leaps. the Mastercard industry and credit card holders are posed with an enormous problem called 'Credit Card Debt'. In order to understand what 'credit card debt' essentially means, we want to understand the workflow associated with the utilization of mastercards as such.

Credit cards, as the name says, are cards on which you can get credit i.e. Make loans ( your Visa card debt ). Your credit card is a representative of the credit account that you hold with the card provider. Whatever payments you make using your ATM card are really your borrowings that make a contribution towards your Visa card debt. Your total Mastercard debt is the full amount you owe card provider. You must settle your Mastercard debt on a once a month basis. So, you receive a monthly statement or your Mastercard bill which shows your total credit card debt. You have to pay off your Mastercard debt by the payment cutoff date failing which you will encounter late charge and interest costs.

However you have the option of making a partial ( minimum ) payment too, in which case you do not attract late charge but just the interest costs on your credit card debt. If you don't pay off your credit card debt totally the interest charges too get added to it. So your ATM card debt keeps on enlarging, more so because the IRs on credit card debt are sometimes higher than the IRs on other kind of loans/borrowings.

Further, the interest fees add on to your credit card debt every month to form the new balance or the new Mastercard debt amount. If you continue making partial payments ( or no payments ) the interest charges are worked out afresh on the new Visa card debt. So you end up paying interest on the last month's interest too. So your credit card debt accumulates fast and shortly you find that what was once a relatively small card debt has swelled into a massive amount which you find almost impossible to pay. Likewise, if you don't still control your spending habits, your Mastercard debt rises even quicker. This is how the endless circle of credit card debt works.
