Why these Types of Credit Cards aren’t as Boring as You Think

Lets face it. Learning about the different types of credit cards sounds as about appealing as going to the dentist for a root canal. But it doesn’t have to be. This guide will do its best to make it as exciting as straightforward as possible.
There are so many cards out there, it can get confusing. In fact there are over 1000 cards to choose from in the USA today! (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Credit_card)

Let’s get down to it; we’ll go over the different forms and their characteristics.

CARD TYPES 1) Store cards

These are the cards at the bottom of the rung, normally easier to get than regular cards and have lower caps. They used to be known as department store cards, but the term is no longer widely used.

2) Credit cards

This are a bit of a throwback. Basically, it’s similar to a debit card. You simply put a certain amount of money on them and then spend it up. I know they mentioned these a lot on Flintstones, oddly enough!

3) Students’ cards
There are commonly low-limit cards that are handed out like sweets at football games and colleges. The rates are typically bad, but the application and approval processes are usually simple.
4) Unprotected credit cards
This indicates that the credit is good enough for the corporation to trust you with a certain sum of money to repay.
5) Secured credit cards
There are credit cards that are linked to properties, such as a house or other collateral.
6) Business cards for small businesses
Not much to explain, these are a business card that can help your business build and maintain a good rating.
So basically, the type and terms of your card can be divided into these categories. So how does a card company know about you?

Qualifications with Different Card Types
A credit card corporation is essentially a risk control firm. They want to be sure you don’t bleed them out while still maximising the amount of money they can make off of you.

So here’s how they assess and rank you in terms of credit risk:

1) Past Experiences:

Like a poor penny, the ranking leads you around. This score or history paints a brief snapshot in time of how you are in terms of paying on time, paying back enough and not having too much credit.

As a result, they allocate score numbers to you so that they can rate you like a teacher would grade a student’s essay. As a result, if you are responsible and can successfully spend your finances, you can have a higher credit score, which ensures you can have access to more credit at better rates.

2) Your net worth: A credit card provider needs to see if you have certain savings so that they will determine whether you will repay the money you borrow. To do that, they can look at your income and properties.

3) Debts and Liabilities

Debt and liabilities are the polar opposites of profits. The card company doesn’t want to extend too much credit so that you can never pay it back.

These are 2 criteria that the card company looks at when giving you a card.
