Problem: Article: Different card issuers offer different types of benefits when you open a card. These may be promotional benefits that last for a set period or they may be used throughout the lifetime of the card! Some cards offer 1% or 2% cash back on all purchases, no annual fee, credit points toward purchases, or promotional interest rates. Benefits should not be the main reason you choose a certain card, think of them as icing on the cake! If you are a student, you may qualify for special offers and promotions. Remember, the interest rate is dependent upon your credit history, so the rates you are offered may change over time. That being said, if this is your first credit card and you have little credit history, you will most likely be approved for a card with a high interest rate. The interest rate will be applied to the remaining balance on your bill if you do not pay it off each month. You should always try to pay your balance in full so you avoid incurring additional interest charges. Know your interest type. Some cards charge interest from the date of purchase, while others charge interest from the billing date. If you are offered a promotional interest rate, find out the terms of payment and when the rate will expire. Most cards apply payments to lowest interest charges first, leaving your higher interest charges to collect interest until the entire amount is paid off. A high interest rate for your first card is not unusual, especially if you have little or no credit history. As you use your first card responsibly, you may qualify for better rates. There can be a variety of different fees that may be applied to your card, which could make some cards better options than others. There may be an annual fee, an application fee, an account service charge, an over-limit fee, a late-payment fee, a cash advance fee, and other miscellaneous fees. Compare these fees to other cards, along with their interest rates and other benefits to make sure you find the best card for you. There are typically three ways to apply for a credit card: through the mail, over the phone and on the Internet. Once you have decided on the right first card for you, you will need to apply for it with the card issuer. They will either accept or deny your application for credit. While a lot of this decision is based on credit history, credit issuers realize that first time card applicants will have very different credit histories than more established credit card users. Card issuers will usually ask about your current income and the current balance in your accounts. They use this information to decide what sort of credit line to assign you, and will commonly ask for proof of income as part of the approval process. You do not have to have a bank account to open a credit card, but you do need to prove that you have a source of income so the card issuer knows you will pay back your purchases. Activating your card usually involves calling in to the credit issuer to confirm that you have received it. Sign the back of your card before you begin using it, this adds an additional layer of security. You can use the credit card wherever they are accepted, online or in person. If your card is ever lost or stolen, contact the credit card issuer immediately. If your card has been used fraudulently, freeze the credit card immediately with your issuer.
Summary: Look at the benefits. Look at interest rates. Ask about fees and charges. Apply. Activate the card.
