Credit Repair Credit Cards: Enhance Your Credit Score
Credit repair credit cards are specifically designed for individuals with poor credit. If you’re struggling to get approved for a standard credit card, these options might be a solution. They come with restrictions to minimize the issuer's risk but can be an effective way to improve your credit score.
Types of Credit Repair Cards
Unsecured Credit Cards
Some credit repair cards don’t require a deposit, making them similar to traditional MasterCard or Visa options. However, they usually offer low credit limits, often between $200 and $250. This limitation helps manage risk by preventing individuals from accumulating high charges.
High APR and Fees
These cards typically come with high annual percentage rates (APR), often around 24% or higher, compared to the lower rates available with good credit. In addition to interest, you might encounter monthly fees of $7 or more, which are charged whether you use the card or not.
It’s not uncommon to face various fees from the start, including:
- Application Fee: Up to $79
- Card Fee: Around $20
- Annual Fee: Approximately $95
- Setup Fee: About $45
- Monthly Fee: $7 or more
These fees can reduce your initial credit limit. For instance, with a $250 limit, you might begin with only $70 available after upfront fees, until these are paid off.
Secured Credit Cards
For those with extremely poor credit, secured credit cards may be the only viable option. These require a refundable deposit?"equal to your credit limit?"and often include a $75 fee. While you’ll still make regular payments, the deposit serves as collateral to offset risk.
Rebuilding Your Credit
Credit repair credit cards can be a useful tool for rebuilding your credit, but it’s essential to manage them correctly. By paying off fees and maintaining low balances, you can gradually improve your credit standing. Always read the fine print and understand all associated costs to ensure you make informed decisions.
