Credit cards for bad credit 

If you have no credit history or your current credit score is low from previous credit problems obtaining a new credit card could be a little difficult. Before deciding when ether to approve or decline a new credit card applications credit companies look at your credit score and previews credit history.

1)    Secured credit cards 

Secured credit cards are the easiest to get regardless of your past credit history. Also if you’re looking to improve your credit history secured cards are a better choice comparing to unsecured cards. Credit card issuers would require the consumer to put a security deposit that serves as collateral if the payment is not made. The credit line is equal to the security deposit that you make. For example if you have a 400$ security deposit your credit line would be equally the same. These credit cards are accepted everywhere that traditional cards are.  

2)    Unsecured credit cards 

Some credit lenders are willing to take more risks and offer unsecured credit cards to consumers who have had credit problems in the past. Generally the credit limit for these cards is low and unsecured credit cards can carry high interest rates, annual fee and application fee.  To avoid interest fees is best to make payment on your monthly purchases in full.
