I am currently interested in applying for the BB&T secured credit card, but the only problem is that my credit score is not very good. It used to be a lot higher, but I haven't attempted to rebuild it since it declined. Do you happen to have any idea about what kind of credit score you need to be approved for a BB&T card?

Unfortunately, I have no way of finding out what score you are required to have to be eligible for one of the cards offered by BB&T. Every credit issuer is different when it comes to determining whether you are worthy of approval. You are not required to have excellent credit to be approved for a card, but there are also many credit issuers who will not want to associate with anyone who has poor credit. If your credit is poor, I would recommend considering a card that works toward building credit.

I was offered to apply for Stoneberry Credit® while shopping online there. I didn't like that I can use that only at Stoneberry. Are there any credit cards that can be used anywhere if I don't have perfect credit.

I like the Oportun Credit Card, but it seems to me that the percentage is high. Are there low interest credit cards for people like me with limited credit history?
Yes, it is possible to find such cards even if you have limited credit history. If your credit score is not where it needs to be, you can apply for credit cards for limited/no credit history from our partners and use it to bring...
