Is it a good idea to use a credit card when making online purchases?

It depends on your financial situation. If you can afford to pay off the balance in full each month, then using a credit card may be beneficial because it allows you to get the item immediately and build up points or rewards that can be redeemed for other items or services. However, if you cannot afford to pay off the entire balance each month, then it might not be worth it as you will end up paying interest and incurring additional fees.
