Often looming in the 25% to 30% range, a default interest rate is significantly higher than a credit card's standard interest rate and is the new percentage to which the interest rate adjusts when the terms of the credit card agreement are broken. Default interest rates can be triggered by events such as a single late payment or exceeding the credit card's credit limit.
