DEFINITION of 'Purchase APR'. The annual percentage rate that applies to outstanding balances on purchases made using a credit card. The purchase APR is the interest rate charged on the remaining balance for any purchases made with the card, if the total balance of a credit card is not paid in full each month. When the balance is paid in full each month, no purchase APR finance charges would be applied.
