What credit card can a student get with no credit history but solid work?

1 Answer

Answer :

Go to whatever bank you use and talk to them. Most have student credit cards that start with low limits, which means low risk for them, so they use them to help build students’ credit. As long as you use it smartly for 6 months or so and keep all your payments up to date you will have built enough credit for either a higher limit or another card.
