A secured card works just like a traditional credit card. The difference is that it requires a cash deposit, which determines the credit limit and acts as collateral for the card.
For example, if you have $500 in your Savings Account, you can apply for a secured credit card with a $500 limit. We’ll place a “hold” on these funds for as long as the secured card is open. You won’t be able to access or spend the $500, but the money in your account will continue to earn dividends. Every month, your information will be reported to the credit bureaus. The better you manage your credit card spending and payments, the more your credit improves!
With time, as you show responsible credit card use, you will be eligible to apply for a traditional unsecured credit card, which does not require a security deposit.
Whether you have no credit or poor credit, you can take charge of your financial well-being and steer your credit in the right direction. Our Take Charge Secured Mastercard® can help you build the credit you’ve been wanting—regardless of your past credit history. It’s also the perfect way for young adults to establish credit for a strong financial future.
Steer steadfast and build your credit wisely!
