What’s a difference between prepaid and secured card?


Great question! Here’s a quick breakdown:

  • Prepaid card: You load money onto the card and spend only that amount. It doesn’t affect your credit score.
  • Secured credit card: You make a deposit, and that deposit sets your spending limit. Your payments are reported to credit bureaus, which can help build your credit.

Our most popular card, PlusSecured™, is a hybrid credit card of prepaid and secured card that offers the best of both worlds. This means that you can:

  • Control how much you can spend by setting your own limit and loading funds like a prepaid card
  • Build your credit score through responsible usage as you would with a secured credit card
