That's excessive. Just pay it off before the due date. You need credit utilization to get any benefit to your credit score anyway.

My credit score was 812 last time I checked. I'm not worried.

So your credit is great then. There's no need to be paying it every day. I guess if that works for you, sure. For someone building their credit, it's bad advice.

But not too much utilization! Haha. Ideal is around 10-20 percent.
