Apple Secured Card? - Jerry® - 08-24-2019
My credit is sh*t but I'm working on it. Too bad Apple doesn’t offer a secured version of the card but I guess that would make it less elite. Screw it I'm going back to Android!!!!!!! LOL
sigh

Have you even applied? My credit "needs work" but I was approved (at the highest rate). Having more credit available means you're using a smaller percentage of it.

People should stop spreading this BS FUD.
G-S is apparently under the directive to grant as many cards as they can.
Obviously they won't throw money away on bad bets, if they can help it. But I'd say you'd have a better chance at getting an Apple Card over most any other card. If I were you, I'd give it a try.
As for secured cards, do they actually help build/rebuild credit?
Having more credit available means you're using a smaller percentage of it.
I've always been a one-card kind of guy. Well, one debit and one credit card, and a couple of store cards.
The idea of five-fifeteen cards to be used where I get the best cash back rate or other bonus has always been too process oriented for me.
But now that I have another card, I may as well get the PayBoo and Jezo cards.
I'm waiting for the CA Lottery to come out with a card. 5% back on all ticket purchases, to be paid over 20yrs.
