Even if you pay in full on the due date, you will still not have a zero balance. Granted there are cards that give a grace period between closing date and due date, but not all.

I didn't know this, but am glad I pay in full at least a week before the due date. Now "my" personal due date for my cards are the business day before their closing date.
