What are deferred payment offers?
Deferral Periods
You may be eligible for Deferred Payments, which are periods of time when you are not required to make payments on a specific purchase. Special rules apply to Deferral Periods: The date, amount and description of each purchase is identified on your Statement for the period when you make the purchase; each Statement contains a summary of all deferred purchases, including the unpaid principal balances, any interest charges and the dates until which payments are deferred. The deferral plan offered to you is made at the sole discretion of WebBank (as implemented by Fingerhut) and cannot be changed by customer request.
Deferred Payments:
Monthly payments on the deferred purchase are not required
during the Deferral Period.
Interest will be charged at the monthly periodic rate on
your deferred purchase from the date of purchase. Interest
charged during the Deferral Period will be added to your
deferred balance, even if you pay off your deferred balance
before the expiration of the Deferral Period.
The amount of your deferred purchase(s) is/are not
considered when we calculate your minimum monthly payment.
We do consider your deferred purchase(s) for purposes of
determining your available credit.
Please note: To ensure qualified orders are placed on deferral, provide your Catalog Number or promotion code at the time of the order. Orders placed without this information will not be placed on deferral.
How do I change my payment due date?
We know that at times a due date may not work. We can change your due date one time in a 12-month period. Please contact us with your desired payment due date. We have the following payment due dates available:
- 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 18, 20, 22, 24, 27
Please note, changing your due date does not impact statements that have already been generated and will go into effect during your next statement cycle. Please make your payments according to the due date specified on your statements.
Important Note for Fingerhut FreshStart® Accounts: Unfortunately, because this account is an installment loan, we are unable to make any changes to your due date or the date your statement is sent to you. To contact our Customer Service Department, click here.
How do I get a credit line increase?
We review accounts several times a year systematically. As your credit profile changes, we may reduce or increase your credit line.
Continuing to make payments on time may make your account eligible for an increase. Please note, we are not accepting requests for credit line increases at this time. If your account is eligible at the time of systematic review, you will be automatically given an increase and notified by regular mail, an email or messaging on your monthly statement.
Missed payments may reduce your credit line if your account becomes delinquent.

What is my down payment and how do I make it?
Your down payment is an initial one-time payment.
Your WebBank/Fingerhut Fetti Credit Account requires a $30 initial one-time payment for your first order and will be subtracted from your order total once paid.
This amount is required for your order to ship.
Your down payment must be paid within 25 days of placing your order, otherwise your order could be cancelled.
You can make your one-time initial payment online as part of the checkout process or by calling 1-800-964-1975 7am-10pm (CT), 7 days a week.
The down payment can be made with the following methods of payment:
- Debit cards – using your debit card when you place your order online will ensure your order is shipped to you quickly, but will take 2 days for your down payment to complete processing before your order is shipped.
- Electronic (ACH) check – there is a 7-day hold time when this method of payment is used, meaning your order could be delayed.
- Money orders – in addition to the time it takes for you to mail it to us, there's also a 2-day processing time frame.
- Paper check – in addition to the time it takes for you to mail it to us, there's also a 7-day clearing time once we receive it, meaning your order could be delayed.
Credit cards are not accepted for down payments.
If mailing a check or money order for your down payment, please use the address below. Please note that this option takes longer, since we have to allow for the time it takes to be mailed to us, and for us to process it.

What happens if I pay my bill late? Are there late charges?
The minimum amount due must be received no later than the due date.
If not, your account may be charged a late fee. Please review the Terms and Conditions of your credit account by clicking here.
If you are a FreshStart customer, paying your low monthly payments in full and on time may reward you with a revolving WebBank/Fingerhut Credit Account with a higher credit limit and no down payments. A late fee will be charged if your payment is not received by the due date. Any late fees you incur on your account will be added as a final payment up to one month after your final installment.
How long does it take for my payment to show up on my account?
You will see your payment on your account within 1-2 business days. Please note that your available credit will update immediately.
How can I pay less in interest charges?
Paying your balance in full or paying more than your minimum amount due will lower your interest charges.

Is there a fee to receive a paper billing statement?
Effective August 1, 2024, we will charge a $1.99 Paper Statement Fee each time you receive a paper statement for your WebBank/Fingerhut Fetti account. Note, the Paper Statement Fee will not apply to account holders residing in states where such a fee is prohibited. In addition to your monthly statement, the Paper Statement Fee also applies to requests to reprint your statement(s). You will be billed $1.99 per paper statement you were sent the previous month unless the ending balance on your account was $5.00 or less. You can avoid the fee by consenting to receive electronic disclosures, which includes billing statements, on or before your payment due date. To avoid the fee, change your consent to receive electronic disclosures by logging into My Account on fingerhut.com.

Please note: To protect your personal information, some account-specific information cannot be emailed. To see customer service hours, click here.
Why was I charged for a product or service from another company?
Fingerhut works with other companies to offer products or services to you.
If you order a product or service from these companies, they are billed to your WebBank/Fingerhut Fetti Credit Account; we do not fill these orders or run the programs. If you buy a product or service from these partner companies, you'll see the charge, the company name, and phone number on your Fingerhut billing statement. Please call the partner company if you have any questions about their programs.
How do you determine the interest rate on credit accounts?
We make every effort to price our credit products competitively and fairly in the marketplace.
How can I avoid interest charges?
If you pay your balance in full each month, you will not be assessed any interest charges.
How much interest was I charged since I started ordering?
We disclose your monthly interest charges on each statement we send you. Please refer to your online or paper statements for historical interest charges.
Why was I charged interest while my order was on deferral?
The deferral period can be a helpful tool to manage your monthly budget while there are no monthly payments due. The deferral period is a time where we don't require a minimum payment due from you. However, interest will still be charged at the monthly periodic rate on your deferred purchase from the date of purchase. The deferral period only applies to the purchase you applied the offer to. Please remember payments may still be due for existing balances on your account.
Why isn't my balance going down?
Paying more than your monthly minimum due can help pay down your balance faster. The time it takes to pay your entire balance down will depend on factors such as how much more than your minimum you are paying, how often you make additional payments, any fees like late fees that are assessed, services you have enrolled in, and additional purchases you make over time.
Is there a penalty for paying more than my minimum balance?
No, if you wish, you may pay more than the minimum payment due at any time up to your credit account balance, without penalty.
The minimum monthly payment is the amount that must be paid each month on balances subject to payment. You may pay more than the minimum payment at any time. However, this does not reduce or eliminate a minimum monthly payment for the following month’s due date.
