FIRST: Discover It Credit Card
A “Secured” Credit Card just means you’ll put down a refundable security deposit - and in return, they’ll give you back a line of credit equal to that exact amount. Your secured credit card will get you 2% cash back on restaurants and gas stations, AND you’ll get unlimited 1% cash back on everything else. They’re also running a promotion where they will MATCH your cash back in the first year.
SECOND: The Apple Credit Card
First, there’s no annual fee…this is INSANELY important for anyone just starting out, because a LARGE part of your credit score is made up by the LENGTH OF YOUR CREDIT HISTORY. In addition to no annual fees, they’ll also give you DAILY cash back…like, 3% cash back on apple products and with select merchants. You’ll also get 2% cash back on any purchases made with Apple Pay, and then 1% cash back on everything else.
THIRD: Amazon Rewards Card
First, there’s no annual fee. If you get the Amazon Prime Rewards Card - which requires you to have a valid Amazon Prime membership to get the full benefit, you’ll get a $100 amazon gift card for signing up, and then you’ll get unlimited 5% cash back on all amazon and Whole Foods purchases, and 2% cash back at restaurants, gas stations, and drugstores…and then 1% cash back on everything else.
The OTHER card I’m referring to is just the normal Amazon Rewards Card…this is what you could get if you DON’T pay for Amazon Prime, and you’ll still get rewards….just not as much. For example, they’ll give you a $50 Amazon Credit when you sign up, 3% cash back on amazon purchases, 2% at restaurants and gas stations, and then 1% back on everything else.
FOURTH: Bank of America Cash Rewards Card.
Just like the others, there’s no annual fee. At the moment, hey’ll also give you a $200 cash bonus when you spend $1000 on the credit card within the first 90 days. THEN…if you’re already a Bank of America Preferred Rewards Member, you can get a cash back booster on the credit card, potentially turning a 3% cash back into a 5.25% reward
FIFTH: American Express Blue Cash Everyday Card
This is one of the few American Express cards that carries NO ANNUAL FEE…so it’s entirely free to use. Plus, you can earn $150 back when you spend $1000 on the card within the first 3 months. AND you’ll get 3% cash back at Supermarkets, 2% cash back at grocery stores, and 1% back on everything else.
And just to tie all of this together, if you want a step by step of what to do:
First, sign up for the Discover It Secured Card with a $200 deposit. Once you get the card, all you need to do is put a few of your normal expenses on the card each month…and then pay it off in full. You will do this for 6 months.
Second, if you want to expedite the credit building process just a little further…around the same time you apply for the Discover It card, also apply for the Capital One Secured Card.
Third, after 6 months of doing this…you’ll want to apply for either the Apple Credit Card or Amazon Credit Card. These will be your first “unsecured credit cards.” With these cards, you’ll just do the same thing as the first two…just put small expenses on it, and pay it off in full by the time it’s due.
Fourth, from there…after 8-12 months from getting your first card…go and open up the American Express Blue Cash Card.
Then, after 12 months…you should have built up enough of a credit foundation to have a score above 750!

It’s important to note that Discover isn’t accepted everywhere, when it’s your only card, that’s a pretty big factor
Great Job, young man,, thanks for the info.

Anyone please answer can I get discover it secured credit card in india
I have a credit score of 675/710 and it says I have a "poor" chance at being approved for those cards. Can you tell me why? plz&ty
No one should use credit card. Credit card is the reason why average American is broke with lots of credit card debt
Been working on building my credit card portfolio. I'm in super good standing. Does it matter how frequently we get cards? Assuming we get approved on all and aren't just applying all over. What duration of time between them should there be, if any?
Need this for 2021 and 2022
This is exactly what I did and it works!
Question: I know having multiple cards makes your history smaller also making your credit lower, how do we go about getting more cards without risking that? [Asking as someone who just recently got approved for the discover it student card- my first credit card ever]
I was searching how to get rid of my negatives when I saw people talking about Mr Looper of scoresenseandspy
Discover's app updates too slowly, makes it look like your balance is bigger than it is.
Can someone explain to me the secured credit line, discover it card? So if I put a deposit of $1200, and I get a $1200 credit line, when I spend it, is it spending the $1200 I put as a deposit
You need to make a video about the wallet you use to hold all these damn credit cards 😂
Looks like your wife works at American Express
How dare you?
I have the AmEx BCE and that one is a credit card, not a charge card, and it definitely has a preset spending limit.
Dude, why is your mouth always open in your thumbnails? Do you play the skin flute?
What would I do without you Beastclone on telgram the credit card I got from you is my best balance have ever had on cc bravo sir
2021 vid?
I have a question I’m just starting out as well I’m choosing between Citibank or navy fed which one should I rely on most????
Is every Amex card a charge card, or is it only certain cards like the gold and platinum cards?
I need to know and I need to do credit cards. How can I do please
You should do a mid tier list
How about a schools card
Your $333 a month joke was hilarious 😂
I tried to get the Apple Card a few time and I have a very good score with no loans and it keeps sawing too much debt obligations for some reason. Do u have any idea what I should do?
Any one else having the same problem? I got the discover it secured card and it has been amazing. The only frustrating thing is that even though I am making my payments on time and stay way below my credit limit, my score still drops every month. It will increase by like 10-15 points then drop the same or even more the following month. I checked my credit score and there's nothing on it that should be causing the decrease. I called discover and they referred me to my credit score. Confused and not sure why this is happening.
