What Does a Bad Credit Card Mean?
Bad credit cards do not mean that the cards are bad. In fact, the word bad is relative to the credit score or credit rating. A bad credit card is indeed a card that people with bad credit scores can obtain. As a result, it is an opportunity for such people to improve the credit score.
Some people even treat bad credit cards as a media to train people who were not able to control the spending patterns.
When a person applies for a bad credit card, or a secured credit card, he / she will need to deposit some cash into the account. In fact, he / she has to maintain a certain amount of cash in the account in order to use the card.
You may probably want to know the reason behind this requirement. You have to understand that providing credit cards is a business and the goal of the company which provides the card is to make money. Trusting a person with a bad score will just be risking the potential profit. As a result, the company will require the people who apply for it to maintain a certain amount of balance in the account. However, you will probably be able to get some interest from the balance of the account. As a result, it can be quite a fair deal!
Usually, the credit limit will be something between 50 to 100% of the balance of the account. As a result, you will probably have a higher credit limit if the amount of balance in the account is larger.
You can find a lot of bad credit cards you can choose from in the market. However, when you are choosing one, you should try to consider the followings:
* The minimum balance to be maintained in the account
* The credit limit (As discussed, this will be something between 50 to 100% of the balance of the account)
* Fees or charges associated with the card
* Interest rate (this is the interest rate for the interest the bank or credit card company will pay you)
Ideally, it will be perfect if you can find a card which requires a small amount of balance in the account and no fee is associated with the card. Of course it will be even more perfect if the interest rate is high. Yet it may take you some time to search for such a bad credit card.
