At Kiu Global, we have a lot of clients asking us, “How do I get a credit card with no credit?”
While getting a credit card with no credit may be more challenging than getting a credit card with a plausible credit history, it isn’t impossible.
There are various ways to build your credit history like paying your bills on time, frequently using your credit card, paying your card in full each month and so on.
However, if you need a credit card and don’t have a credit history, there are still credit card options that you can pursue.

What to Look for When Getting a Credit Card
There are a few factors to consider when applying for your first credit card:
Credit Reporting: Check to make sure that the card issuer reports to the credit bureaus because if not, you won’t be able to build your credit with the card.
Fees: Make sure that all the credit card fees are clear such as late fees, annual fees, returned payment fees, billing statement copy fees etc. to ensure that you won’t be charged for every minute detail when you swipe your card.
Interest Rate: Generally, you shouldn’t have a huge balance on your credit card for long periods of time. However, if you do, make sure that your interest rate isn’t too high because you’ll end up losing out on more money.
Qualification Requirements: Check the requirements before applying for the card because an application denial may hurt your credit score by up to 5 points.
Types of Cards:
Secured: Secured credit cards typically require a refundable deposit starting at $200 but are a great option for individuals with no credit history.
Unsecured: Most credit cards are unsecured and require no deposit.
Student: Student credit cards are typically targeted at students who are still in school or have recently graduated. Student credit cards offer various rewards in order to promote responsible use.
Rewards: Rewards credit cards typically require a credit score, but some beginner cards include rewards.
Gas: Gas cards usually require a lower credit score and are sometimes loyal to specific brands such as Visa or Mastercard.
Make sure you keep these considerations in mind when searching for the right credit card for you in order to avoid paying more than you need to and ensure that you’re building good credit.
