Paying online through Comenity Bank
Log in to your account at the Comenity Bank website or through the Comenity mobile app. Enter your card number and password, or create an account if you haven't already. Once you're logged in, select "Make a Payment" and choose the amount you want to pay — you can pay the full balance, the minimum payment, or any amount in between.
Enter or confirm your bank account information for the payment source. Comenity will show you the date the payment will post, which is usually the next business day. Review the details and confirm the payment. You'll receive a confirmation number when ready, and the payment will appear in your account history.
If you want to avoid logging in each month, you can set up automatic payments from the same portal. Choose the amount (minimum, full balance, or a fixed dollar amount), the day of the month you want it to come out, and whether it should repeat monthly or just once. Automatic payments remove the risk of missing a due date.
Paying by phone
Call the customer service number printed on the back of your Lane Bryant credit card. A representative will ask for your card number and the last four digits of your Social Security number to verify your identity. Tell them you want to make a payment and provide the amount.
The representative will confirm your current balance, due date, and minimum payment before processing the payment. They'll also tell you which bank account the payment will be drawn from if you're paying from a checking or savings account. Once confirmed, the payment is processed when ready, though it may take one business day to appear in your account.
Phone payments are useful if you have questions about your balance or need to discuss your account, but they take longer than online payments because you're waiting for a representative. Call during business hours listed on your statement or card.
Paying by mail
Write a check or money order payable to Comenity Bank. Include your Lane Bryant credit card number on the check itself. Place the check in an envelope with the payment coupon from your monthly statement — the coupon has the mailing address and your account number printed on it.
Mail the payment to the address shown on the coupon. Do not mail it to a Lane Bryant store location; it must go to the Comenity Bank processing center. Mailed payments typically take 7 to 10 business days to post, so mail your payment at least 10 days before your due date to avoid a late fee.
Keep a record of the check number and the date you mailed it. If the payment doesn't appear in your account within 10 business days, contact Comenity customer service with this information so they can trace it.
What happens if you miss a payment
If your payment doesn't arrive by the due date, Comenity will charge a late fee. The amount varies but typically ranges from $25 to $40 depending on your card terms. A late payment also appears on your credit report and can lower your credit score.
If you realize you'll miss the due date, contact Comenity when ready — before the payment is late. Explain your situation and ask whether they can extend the due date or work out a payment plan. Some cardholders are able to negotiate a one-time extension, though this is not may provide.
If your payment is already late, make a payment as soon as possible to stop additional fees from accruing. The late fee itself won't be reversed, but paying quickly prevents your account from being reported as seriously delinquent.
Setting up automatic payments to avoid missed due dates
The easiest way to stay on top of your Lane Bryant credit card is to set up automatic payments through your Comenity account. Log in to your account, go to "Automatic Payments" or "Recurring Payments," and enter your bank account information. Choose the amount you want to pay each month — many people choose the full statement balance so they don't carry interest charges.
Select the day of the month you want the payment to come out. Choose a date that gives you time to may support the funds are in your bank account. For example, if you get paid on the 15th, set the payment for the 20th. You can change or cancel automatic payments at any time through your account.
Automatic payments remove the mental load of remembering a due date and protect you from late fees. They also help you build a positive payment history, which improves your credit score over time.
Understanding your statement and due date
Your Lane Bryant credit card statement arrives each month and shows your opening balance, all purchases and credits from that month, your new balance, and your due date. The due date is typically 21 to 25 days after your statement closes. Payments must post by 5 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date to avoid a late fee.
Your statement also shows the minimum payment required — usually 1 to 3 percent of your balance. Paying only the minimum means you'll carry a balance and pay interest charges, which makes your purchases more expensive over time. Paying the full balance each month avoids interest entirely.
If you don't receive your statement in the mail, you can view it online through your Comenity account. You can also set up paperless statements to receive an email notification when your statement is ready instead of waiting for the mail.
