Q: What’s the difference between Platinum Visa and Platinum Visa Secured credit card?

A Secured Visa card is protected by a permanent hold placed on money in your savings account and it requires a security deposit. They are usually advised to people whose credit is damaged or who have no credit history. The time limit of a deposit depends on the issuer and it is usually one year. During that period of time, you need to have a good payment history in order to get an unsecured credit card with more favorable conditions and better rewards. Secured credit cards represent a very low risk to the card issuer. On the other hand, an unsecured credit card does not require a security deposit and are advised to people with good credit, and they are better in terms that they offer excellent rewards programs.

Q: How are Credit Cards secured?

Secured credit cards use a deposit given by the person who wants to get the card and it is obligatory in order to obtain the card. If the person who owns the card do not manage to pay his/her obligations, the deposit is used to fulfill the obligation. This way the issuer is protected, while people with poor credit can have the benefits of a credit card as long as they pay off their obligations on time. These kind of cards can help rebuild the customer’s credit history.
