They will only report you to the credit bureaus if you're 30 days late or more. You may have a late fee but that's it. You're good.

Ah, gotcha. I really didn't know how they operated. Good to know.

Sorta.

If you have a special interest rate offer you may find that you are now paying 20% or more, sometimes they will yank the offer without telling you.

But it definitely won't hurt your score. Quite frankly, most issuers love people who are no more than a few days late every now and then, it's extra cash flow in late fees.
