Pay your Ulta Credit Card online, by phone, or by mail
You can pay your Ulta Credit Card bill through the Ulta Beauty website, by calling the card issuer's customer service line, or by mailing a check. The fastest method is online through your account portal, where payment posts within one to two business days. Phone and mail payments take longer — typically three to five business days — so use those only if you cannot access the online portal.
Your bill is issued by Comenity Capital Bank, which handles all Ulta Credit Card accounts. This matters because you will be sending payments to Comenity, not directly to Ulta Beauty. The payment address, phone number, and online portal are all managed by Comenity on behalf of Ulta.

Pay online through the Comenity portal
Log in to your Comenity account at comenity.com or through the Ulta Beauty mobile app. On the app, tap the credit card icon and select "Make a Payment." On the website, click "Pay My Bill" from the account dashboard. Enter the amount you want to pay — you can pay the full balance, the minimum payment, or any amount in between.
Choose your payment method: bank account (ACH transfer) or debit card. Bank account transfers are free and take one to two business days. Debit card payments post when ready but may carry a small fee depending on your card issuer. Review the payment details, confirm the amount and date, and submit. You will receive a confirmation number on screen and by email.
If you are paying from a bank account for the first time, Comenity will verify the account by depositing two small amounts (usually under $1 each) and then withdrawing them. You will need to confirm these amounts in your banking portal before the payment goes through. This verification takes one to two business days.
Pay by phone with Comenity customer service
Call the number on the back of your Ulta Credit Card to reach Comenity's payment line. Have your card and the amount you want to pay ready. A representative will walk you through the payment and ask for your bank account or debit card information. Phone payments are free and take three to five business days to post to your account.
Phone lines are typically open Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. Eastern time, and Saturday and Sunday, 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Eastern time. Wait times are usually shortest early in the morning or mid-week. If you call near your due date, confirm with the representative that your payment will post before the important date.
Pay by mail
Write a check or money order payable to Comenity Capital Bank. Include your Ulta Credit Card account number on the check. Mail it to the address printed on your monthly statement under "Payment Address" — this address changes based on where payments are processed, so always use the one on your current bill.
Mail payments take five to seven business days to arrive and post. If your due date is fewer than seven days away, do not use mail. Include only the check and your account number — do not send your card or other documents. Keep a copy of the check for your records.
Set up automatic payments to avoid missed due dates
Log into your Comenity account and select "Manage Autopay" or "Automatic Payments." Choose whether you want to pay the full balance, the minimum payment, or a fixed amount each month. Select the date the payment should process — this is usually between the 1st and the 28th of each month. Confirm your bank account or debit card information and submit.
Automatic payments process on your chosen date every month until you cancel them. If your balance is zero, the payment will not go through. You can change or cancel automatic payments anytime through your account portal. Set the payment date a few days before your due date to may support it posts on time.
Understand your statement and due date
Your monthly statement shows your opening balance, all purchases and credits from the past month, your new balance, your minimum payment due, and your payment due date. The due date is typically 21 to 25 days after your statement closes. Payments received by 5 p.m. Eastern time on the due date are considered on time.
If you pay only the minimum, the remaining balance carries over to the next month and accrues interest. The interest rate (APR) is printed on your statement and varies based on your creditworthiness. Paying the full balance each month avoids interest charges entirely. If you cannot pay the full balance, paying more than the minimum reduces the interest you owe.
What to do if you miss a payment
If your payment does not arrive by the due date, Comenity will charge a late fee (typically $25 to $40, depending on your account terms) and may report the late payment to credit bureaus. A single late payment can lower your credit score and increase your APR on this card and others.
If you realize you have missed a payment, log into your account or call Comenity when ready and make a payment right away. The late fee will still explore, but paying quickly prevents further damage. If you are having trouble making payments, call Comenity to discuss hardship options — some cardholders can negotiate lower payments or temporary relief.
