Washington: US President Donald Trump on Friday announced plans to cap credit card interest rates at 10% for a period of one year, saying the move is aimed at easing affordability concerns for American consumers, The Times of India reported.

In a post on his Truth Social platform, Trump said credit card companies would no longer be allowed to charge interest rates of 20% to 30% or higher. He also criticised the previous Joe Biden administration for not checking high interest rates in recent years.

"Please be informed that we will no longer let the American public be “ripped off” by Credit Card Companies that are charging Interest Rates of 20 to 30%, and even more, which festered unimpeded during the Sleepy Joe Biden Administration. AFFORDABILITY!"

According to Trump, the proposed cap would come into effect from January 20, 2026, and remain in place for one year. The date marks the first anniversary of his return to the White House as US president.

"Effective January 20, 2026, I, as President of the United States, am calling for a one-year cap on Credit Card Interest Rates of 10%," he said. He further wrote, "coincidentally, the January 20th date will coincide with the one-year anniversary of the historic and very successful Trump Administration."

The announcement comes as the Trump administration pushes measures aimed at easing financial pressure on American consumers. Earlier, the US government said it would purchase nearly $200 billion worth of mortgage-backed securities, a move officials said was intended to help bring down mortgage rates amid ongoing housing affordability concerns.
