Press Release Summary: A cardholder owns the secured credit card and it is a kind of
credit card protected by the deposit account.

Press Release Body: Normally, the cardholder should deposit between hundred percent
and two hundred percent of the sum amount of the credit desired. Therefore, if
cardholder puts along $1000, she or he will be set credit up to $500-$1000.
Sometimes even on the protected card portfolios few credit card issuers provide
incentives. In this situation the credit needed may be noticeably lower than the
needed credit limit, as well as can be very low, say, up to ten percent of the
desired credit limit.

These deposits are held in very unique saving accounts. Issuers of credit card
provide this when they notice the delinquency has notably lessened when the
purchaser thinks that he has a bit to drop if he will not pay back his balance. A
secured credit cardholder can make regular payments like she or he would do with
that of a regular card payment. But should she or he default on the payment, the
credit card issuer can recover the price of the acquisition rewarded to the traders
away from the deposits.

The greatest advantage of having the secured credit card for any individual with no
credit or negative history is what many companies report often to the main credit
bureaus. It allows for building positive credit card history. Secured credit cards
allow a customer with no credit or bad credit history to possess a card otherwise it
may not be available. They offer these cards more often so that customer's can
re-build their credit again. Secured credit card is available with MasterCard and
Visa having both logos on the credit cards. Service and fees charges for these
credit cards frequently go beyond those charged, which are for simple non-secured
credit cards, but for customers in specific situation, these card are sometimes less
costly in comparison to unsecured cards, even if you include deposit security.

A prepaid card is not actually a credit card, no credit is provided by the issuer of
the card. This prepaid credit card is having a MasterCard and Visa credit card
brands with them as well as they can be operated in same ways. Many people want an
appropriate solution to rebuild their credit; latest changes have permitted few
companies of credit card to provide prepaid credit cards in rebuilding the credit.
They are very hard to get and have huge interest rates and huge APR fees.

After the purchase of the card, cardholder can fill the amount they want in their
cards and can use the card for their purchase. These cards are given to minors
because no credit lines are involved. The great advantage of this card is that you
do not required huge amount say $500 or much to start your account. Without
borrowing any amount it will charge you rate of interest. Usually many more fees are
applied to prepaid card.
