Add Good Credit to your Reports:
New unsecured and secured credit can improve your credit scores
by Lisa Phillips  
updated December 2009
You can improve your credit scores by adding positive credit to your reports. There is nothing
worse than having nothing but negative credit on your reports. Consumers with bad credit often
only concentrate on removing negative information while attempting to rebuild their credit.

Get Unsecured Credit Cards for Rebuilding Credit
Since 2008, our economy has experienced a tightening of credit. Lenders and banks have
changed the qualifications for credit and it has become much more difficult to qualify for credit.
A good credit score is now considered to be 700 and above. For consumers who have less
than perfect credit, establishing a good payment history while using 30% or less of your
available credit limit will  improve credit scores.

Get Secured Credit Cards for Rebuilding Credit
Consumers who may not be approved for an unsecured credit card still have an excellent
alternative in the form of secured credit cards. Secured credit cards offer many of the same
benefits as unsecured credit cards. Additionally, you determine your own credit limit with the
savings deposit used to secure your credit card.

The rules of  having a secured credit are the same when it comes to credit scores. Your credit
card balance should always be kept to 30% or less of your available credit limit. This is very
important to raise and maintain your credit scores. Never use all of your available credit. Another
important action to take with a secured credit card is to make sure your payment history is
reported to all major credit bureaus.

genuine Secured Visa Platinum Credit Card with 0% APR on Purchases. Consumers are required
to open an FDIC Insured Deposit Account that will equal their Credit Limit. Deposits can range

The
Next Millennium Black MasterCard® offers no credit check, you are approved regardless of
credit history, a secured credit limit of up to $5000.00, cash advance at over 740,000 ATMs and
acceptance wherever MasterCard® is accepted.

New Credit Should be Reported to Major Credit Bureaus
The way your credit card is reported is also important. The ideal scenario is to have the credit
card issuer report the account the same way as a non-secured credit card. Basically you do not
want a notation on your reports that the credit card is secured. The credit bureaus may ding your
score if it sees "secured" credit on your credit reports.

*It is our goal to offer you the credit card that best fits your credit profile, which may or may not be the card you originally inquired
about. You may be offered a secured card or an unsecured card, and with different terms and conditions which will be disclosed
before your application is processed.
