How credit-building cards work
Set your credit limit.
Your refundable deposit is held in a secured savings account. Your card limit is the same amount as your security deposit.
An everyday card for your purchases.
Use your card wherever credit cards are accepted. It works just like a traditional credit card, and it looks the same, too – merchants can’t tell the difference between a secured card and traditional card.
Build your credit.
We monitor your activity and regularly report your card status to the three major credit bureaus. Spend within your limit and pay your bill when it’s due. Over time, this will help build your credit.
