Great credit building card

5
I’ve had my account for several years without any issues. The app for keeping track is great, it’s simple and easy to use! Ok the APR is a little on the high side, but for credit building it’s perfect! Especially if you pay your balance before the interest goes on! Reviewed on: 9th July 2025

Useless. Needed a refund for an error but they've done nothing other than charge fees. Reviewed on: 9th July 2025

Protected.

5
I have had an experience of fraud in which I was protected absolutely and throughout. Most of what was done was without my input, I was simply informed of what had occured; unsolicited payments. Further, the app is incredibly smooth and easy to use. Finally the security is top notch, as rather than requiring an email confirmation, payments were confirmed through the app. Very convenient for on the go banking. Reviewed on: 9th July 2025

key advantage is its pre-approval checker, which lets applicants see eligibility without affecting their credit score. Customers also benefit from potential credit limit increases over time and access to a user-friendly mobile app. Reviewed on: 9th July 2025
