After 4 months they give you the opportunity to open a secured credit cardAnother is called "Kikoff": These guys will report a $500 Limit Credit Line for less than 5 bucks a month.These modern services are a great place to start, they will never report late payments, won't get you into debt and build your credit score every bit as much as credit cards.After you 3 - 5 of these open for 90 days THEN apply for credit cards, you will get much better approvals, higher limits, lower rates, more rewards etc...Mortgage lenders will also be looking at how long those accounts have been open.
