Low deposit amount. To use a Green Dot credit card, you can make a deposit as low as $200. However, try to deposit more if possible, so you can keep your utilization rate low.
No credit check. Green Dot won’t make a hard pull on your credit when you apply for any of the cards.
No minimum credit score required. Apply for a Green Dot card even with poor credit.
Reporting to the major credit bureaus. Your responsible spending and payments are reported to Experian, TransUnion and Equifax.
