Answer
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.
It is permissible for one to use a credit card to purchase a Qurbani animal.
You should ensure that you do have money in your account or you make timeous payments to avoid interest on late payments.
And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
