Capital 1 cash back question

if my statment balance is 1000 and it due by Feb 7th. I have 200 in cash back that i wanted to use as a statement credit. Does the cash back count as a payment or would i still need to pay the statment balance of 1000 in order  not to be charged intrest ?

As long as it credits by the due date, it counts as an additional payment.  If you had zero balance after payment and statement credit, there would be no interest.  The one important thing to know is that statement credits usually do not count toward a minimum payment.

The statement credit doesnt count as your "payment" for the month.  So, still make a payment.

Oops, sorry.  Yea, as long as everything is in the same statement, just the 800 should do it.
