what I've found is just that bank is for profit, union isn't, and union can give better interest

thanks :)

Basically, yes. Some companies also have "leeway months", so to continue your example say you don't pay it off entirely for the first 3 months, but just a portion. My credit card has (1) year to the date of purchase before interest accrues, so as long as it's paid off within the year I can take as long as I like to pay it off.

Still, always pay off in full when you can.
